Tasks / Blind Sculpting
Inspired by the Seeing Beyond Sight Photo Challenge, continue to create art in a state of disrupted senses:
1. Choose a medium.
2. Blindfold yourself.
3. Create a sculpture of something you sense while blindfolded.
4. Give the sculpture to a stranger, gallery, or museum. If a stranger, ask them to title it.
5. Document as you go.

I think a truly excellent addition would be to have someone experience the sculpture blindfolded.
