Frida Ingha

In the foreground of the City Hall in Örebro, a sign is used that is usually used as a directions sign. Instead of the Latin alphabet, Braille can be seen on the signs. The sign is black with an arrow formation at the front. A white border can be seen around the outer edges of the sign. The image is a close-up of the signs pointing in different directions.

Frida Ingha’s artwork consists of a signpost that is normally used to provide directions. The text on the sign is written in Braille instead of letters. The only problem is that the Braille message is far too high for anyone with a visual impairment to read it, and most sighted people cannot read Braille. The sign is accessible for no one at all.

The content of the sign does not point toward any destination, but instead consists of words such as parenthood, self-determination, education. Aspects that are often ignored by society for people outside the functional norm.

The sign is black with an arrow formation in the front edge. A white border can be seen around the outer edges of the sign. The sign's pole and foundation are black. The picture shows the sign in its entirety, behind the sign you can see some people sitting down on a park bench in front of City Hall. On the right edge you can also see the shrubbery from a tree with green leaves.
