Challenges We Observed
- Asian art in Western museums is often presented out of context, flattening cultural complexity.
- Traditional Chinese scrolls are displayed in static, inaccessible formats—losing their narrative and spatial flow.
- Blind and low-vision visitors face limited engagement with historical artworks, especially those reliant on visual detail.
Key Questions That Drove Us
- How can we design a more culturally faithful way to experience Chinese scrolls in a museum?
- What does it mean to access an artwork through touch, movement, and technology?
- Can we bridge the gap between historical intent and modern accessibility without compromising either?
