Tony Deifell discusses Seeing Beyond Sight: Photographs by Blind Teenagers with additional reading by writer Kathy Knox who is a member of the board of directors of Lighthouse for the Blind.

Tony Deifell, visual artist and social entrepreneur, taught blind students to take pictures as an innovative, multi-sensory means of self-expression. Their intuitive, dreamlike images are often surprising and beautiful in their composition, light, and chiaroscuro intensity. What began as an experimental after-school photography club grew into a five-year project that impacted Deifell as much or more than his students.

"Seeing Beyond Sight" is about seeing in the broadest sense. The young photographers own stories tell of danger, fear, trust, race and beauty found in all of our lives; their photographs, some of which will be shown in a special presentation this evening, are simply astonishing - Cody's Books
