The project aims to create an interactive piece of art that is inclusive and accessible to visually impaired and color-blind individuals. It draws inspiration from the concept of alternate text, which is an important accessibility feature that provides text descriptions of images on websites for screen readers to interpret for visually impaired users. The goal was to create a similar experience in the form of an art piece that engages multiple senses - touch, feel, and sound - to allow people to engage with a distinct memory.
The interactive piece of art is designed to provide a holistic experience, with different materials, textures, and sounds incorporated to bring the memory to life. The artwork creates a sensory experience that allows people to connect with the artwork on a deeper level.

The artwork is based on a distinct summer memory of mine. I wanted everyone to experience and appreciate the art piece, regardless of their visual abilities. I researched on the accessible colour-blind pallette. Along with audio, I used tactile materials to add texture to the painting. I used a touchboard and conductive paint to connect the painting with audio.
