In this episode of the Charles Bonnet Syndrome podcast, host Shaimond interviews Selene Carboni, an art educator from Italy who specializes in teaching visually impaired individuals how to create and appreciate art. Selene discusses her journey from an art historian to advocating for the artistic capabilities of blind individuals. She shares her experiences working at the Francesco Cavazza Institute for the Blind and her research on drawings made by blind individuals at the University of Toronto. The conversation explores how visually impaired people can engage in artistic activities, the stages of drawing development, and the importance of tactile art resources. Selene also highlights the inspirational stories of her students and the importance of raising awareness and educating others about the artistic potential of the visually impaired.
