This inspiring project aims to take famous paintings of the world, turn them into 3d sculptures, and allow the visually impaired to ‘see’ them using tactile touch.

Called the Unseen Art Project, funds are being raised to create 3D printed replicas of some of the world’s most famous paintings, like the Mona Lisa. The project is run by Helsinki-based designer Marc Dillon.

Check out their IndieGogo Campaign to take part.
