Description:
Culture House DC is pleased to present Legally Blindish: Paintings + Translations, an intimate exhibition by Briget Heidmous. The exhibition features two paintings and their one-of-a-kind soundscape Translations. Heidmous explores location, space, and place, inviting viewers to engage with the illusory scale of worlds in multiple stages of construction and deconstruction. Sound artists Magnus Andretti and Bruce Copening collaborate with Heidmous, interpreting visual works into sound translations.

The exhibit reflects on the U.S. definition of “legally blind,” discussing the gap between vision care and healthcare, and Heidmous’ own experiences with early vision decline. Her artistic practice combines painting and sound-based Translations to provide a multi-sensory experience.

Programming for this exhibition will be announced at www.briget-heidmous.com/experiences.
