They allow those who have   <\/span><b>visual disabilities<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">  to have a more in-depth and satisfying museum experience. At the same time, they enrich the   <\/span><b>tour route<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">  for other audiences, such as children or people who want to explore the museum in an alternative way. They offer an experience that stimulates the   <\/span><b>touch<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and allows interaction with art and history in a more direct and engaging way.<br><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Each tactile card is carefully designed to represent the essential details of a work. For example, a   <\/span><b>sculpture<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> can be simplified and translated into a relief drawing highlighting its main structure and proportions, while a <\/span><b>painting<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> can be described through lines and <\/span><b>textures in relief<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">  that allow us to grasp the overall composition and subjects depicted. These tactile images are accompanied by texts in   <\/span><b>Braille code<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> that provide information about the work, such as title, author, and historical period.<br><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The process of making the tactile cards requires special attention. The preparation of the design of each card is always preceded by the critical reading of the work in question carried out in close collaboration with the curators and art historians of monumental sites and\/or museums in order to identify those elements and\/or figures that can effectively convey the meaning of the work and that at the same time lend themselves most correctly to tactile communication.   <br><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Printing is done by special machines chosen according to the type of design and material of the substrate.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\n<style>\n#text-381661444 {\n  color: rgb(255,255,255);\n}\n#text-381661444 > * {\n  color: rgb(255,255,255);\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#col-508948451 > .col-inner {\n  margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;\n  border-radius: 20px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\n<style>\n#row-777426168 > .col > .col-inner {\n  padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\n<style>\n#row-1382911360 > .col > .col-inner {\n  padding: 60px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n@media (min-width:550px) {\n  #row-1382911360 > .col > .col-inner {\n    padding: 60px 0px 0px 0px;\n  }\n}\n<\/style>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#col-971366253 > .col-inner {\n  margin: 0px 0px 20px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\n<style>\n#row-70890685 > .col > .col-inner {\n  padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;\n  background-color: rgb(38, 33, 79);\n}\n@media (min-width:550px) {\n  #row-70890685 > .col > .col-inner {\n    padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;\n  }\n}\n<\/style>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2730,"parent":3833,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-blank.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-3847","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/citislab.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3847","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/citislab.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/citislab.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/citislab.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/citislab.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3847"}],"version-history":[{"count":13,"href":"https:\/\/citislab.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3847\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5233,"href":"https:\/\/citislab.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3847\/revisions\/5233"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/citislab.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3833"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/citislab.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2730"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/citislab.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3847"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
