I am a photographic artist and filmmaker with impaired vision. My work explores the connection between degraded eyesight, memory, truth, and personal history.

Message
Visual Impairment, Red (not Pink) by Doug Winter Image: The first impulse when encountering this work is to ask: What is this? The need to define its source becomes pressing, even as its blurred hues resist clarity. At the center, a burst of pink is enveloped by soft blue fields, evoking both beauty and uncertainty.

This piece reflects the thin line of perception, where forms collapse into echoes and dissolve into subjectivity. The artist's intent is to distort the subject, and in doing so, its physical properties become inaccessible, echoing the experience of those living with disabilities.
Everything is present, yet unreachable. A visual object lesson on navigating a world where facts feel just out of reach."
