Carmen Papalia

Carmen Papalia is a blind artist from Vancouver, British Columbia. His practice focuses on "creative wayfinding", the use of alternative modes of navigation without visual cues. Papalia is known for his performances. This includes a performance in Santa Ana, California where Papalia was guided only by a marching band playing predetermined audio cues for physical obstacles and navigation. Papalia also conducts non-visual walking tours for sighted people. In 2015, Papalia proposed an anti-policy approach to accessibility "rethinking of the terms on which all of us care for and coexist with one another" in his Open Access conceptual framework.
