Designed by Beyond Vision International, this booklet is a tactile guide for Trishaw Rider, a painting from National Gallery Singapore’s collection. It is a tactile tool that enables both vision-impaired and sighted individuals to appreciate art together.

This booklet has deconstructed the painting into several layers - from the trishaw and hood in the foreground, to the rider playing his nose flute in the midground, and finally, the background. On the last page, we will combine these layers into one, presenting the entire painting. The colours in the painting are represented by different textures in the Tactile Colour System. Before delving into the painting, the audio description will first introduce you to the system.

Please approach the staff if you require any assistance.

We hope you enjoy this unusual and extraordinary journey of art appreciation!
