Use your screen reader to listen to audio descriptions of select artworks in the exhibition Archives of Feeling: Trauma, Knowledge, Empathy below or when visiting RMIT Gallery via the Near Field Communication (NFC) labels to the right of the artworks with your own device. Audio descriptions are marked with a tactile indicator (croc tape), locatable when shorelining with a cane.

Audio descriptions are vivid verbal descriptions that make visual information accessible for people who are blind or have low vision and offer a new perspective for everyone.
