The installation “I can see but can’t understand” by the new artist and participant of the “Baltic Light Chain” project Kadi-Maarja Võsu is a plexiglas box filled with lamps that form an inscription in Braille. The inscription in Estonian means “The blind looks”. Plexiglas dispels the fundamental principle of Braille – it is visible, but cannot be read by touch. Information is available, but it is impossible to understand. The object was previously exhibited in the Tallinn Light Festival.

Authors and implementers of the object: Kadi-Maarja Võsu (Estonia)
