Do You See?

Explore the Show

The “Do You See What I See?” online show invites questions about what it means to “see” with and without words. Guests can choose to view the photograph at the same time as the description and poems or they can choose to have the images “hidden”. With images hidden, the viewer can explore multiple verbal options to engage each of the 20 titles. They can “unhide” the photograph after the verbal exploration if they choose. Although the photographs are positioned in a particular order, you need not follow that order. Feel free to start at the beginning or pick a spot along the path and explore from there.

Whether you choose to hide or show images, you can change your mind at any point from any gallery page. If you hide images by default, you can also opt to show that page’s image individually when you are ready, by using the buttons at the top of each page.

Start the tour: with images shown – or images hidden. Or, go to the gallery list.

Show Accessibility

Have you ever thought about how an individual who is visually impaired navigates the visual online world? Screen reader software acts as an interface between the computer and the user. A screen reader will “read” (or speak) the content of a webpage to the user. Screen reader users navigate computers with a series of keystrokes that depend on the web site being designed for accessibility. The following orientation will allow screen reader users to move with ease through this online exhibit.

History of the Show

“Do You See What I See?” shares ordinary, everyday images that my vision enables me to appreciate from new and varied perspectives. These snapshots offer a glimpse into an individual journey. As is true for much of how I “see” things, little is definitive. Instead, these photographs express moments, ideas, and even questions to hold. It is my hope that as they are viewed by you in this moment, the details of “my” unique story blur into the background, so that the essence of our shared sacred journeys come into focus for consideration.
