The international seminar Cartographies of the Unseen, produced by the Institut Ramon Llull with the support of Venice’s Iuav University and Barcelona’s Pompeu Fabra University (UPF), is to be held as part of Catalonia in Venice 2017_La Venezia che non si vede, a Collateral Event at the 57th International Art Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia. It will be the perfect opportunity to present the work carried out by the community of citizens, volunteers, students and researchers which are taking part in the Venetian edition of the BlindWiki project. This inclusive project is being presented at the Cantieri Navali de Castello from May 13th to November 26th. It is a sensorial interpretation of the city of canals, created by Catalan artist Antoni Abad in collaboration with people who are blind or visually impaired, a collective who uses their senses in a different and unique way. Through the shared exchange of both the experiences and difficulties of their daily lives, less obvious urban forms are revealed, allowing for a new map of public space to be drawn up that is usable by everyone. This Seminar will bring together a selected interdisciplinary group of artists, activists and scholars who have been invited to be active participants engaging on the collective research and creation of the unseen. Coordinated by Mario Ciaramitaro, researcher at Università Iuav di Venezia, and Roc Parés, co-curator of the Catalan project and researcher at Universitat Pompeu Fabra, the Seminar will focus on the critical and poetic practices that include geolocating, sensorialization and social engagement, as means to research art and accessibility both in urban spaces and digital interfaces.
