Yoshiko Murakami paints an incredibly forceful portrait of blind persons life. A spontaneous and intense series. These black and white pictures are an open window on an unknown world, a strong project awarded with the HSBC price in 1999. The idea comes from a photographer experience with the association Les Tréteaux volants. Indeed, in the 90s she collaborated with this institution by following blind persons in discovering nature. Her pictures poetically catch these moments.
A book called Les mains pour voir has been published.
