The description of how he visualises the orange cup amazes me and helps me understand what his eyes tells him. His style of painting gives the sense of "being there".
Mann's work is definitely about looking. With what started as short-sightedness and astigmatism has become cataract and ultimately led to a corneal transplant. Mann is totally blind since 2005. His brushwork is confident and furiously fast, his colours like music.
After watching this clip it will be important that I can make the audience visualise how some visually impaired people see by using a pair of goggles. I could also do a selection of different impairments to illustrate the variation. This will make the product interactable to everyone. Its quite fascinating how he doesnt use contrasting colours and can see the warm tones.
