World Unseen

The photography exhibition you don’t need to see – for blind, partially sighted, and sighted people – with Canon technology and the RNIB

Canon believes that everyone should be able to experience photography. That’s why we launched World Unseen, the photography exhibition you don’t need to see: an immersive experience for blind, partially sighted, and sighted people - where you don’t just see the photography, you feel it.

World Unseen makes photography more accessible and immersive for everyone. And, in doing so, it changes the way sighted people understand the visual impairment experience. It’s a privilege to work on a creative idea that means so much to so many people, and I hope it inspires others to be more inclusive in their work too.

Creative Director

Photography is an incredibly powerful medium that can push the imagination and we want this experience to be accessible to everyone. This exhibition was created with blind and partially sighted people in mind to share imagery and the stories behind them in an entirely new way. With Canon’s elevated print technology, we hope all visitors will feel a deeper connection to the emotions and stories that imaging can bring to life.
