The Braille Project, a public art project for the blind produced in Portland, Oregon by Scott Wayne Indiana. The graffiti is marked as “Braille graffiti,” the idea being that a sighted person can let a blind person know it’s there. How exciting would it be, however, for a reader of Braille to discover this entirely by accident while leaning against a wall?
