The minus sign (-) is an artwork merging tactile art with digital technology. Represented in relief using the Braille system, this mathematical symbol is part of the exhibition "Braille and Inclusive Tactile Digital Art." |
Title of Work: Braille Sign Minus (-) on Cotton T-Shirt
Materials: Sintra. Adhesive Vinyl for fabric.
Technique: Collage and LED Lighting.
Dimensions: 60x80 cm
Installation: Exhibition Gallery.
Artist: E.E.A.B -Lalinchi Arreaga Burgos.
How to Create the Mathematical Minus Sign in Braille
To represent the minus sign (–) in the Braille system, a standard Braille cell is used with raised dots 3 and 6 (⠤). This symbol is employed in mathematical contexts and, when part of a numerical operation, must be preceded by the number indicator for correct interpretation.
Technical Features of the Accessible Tactile Work
-Tactile design: The piece includes a Braille generator cell printed on the T-shirt, designed to be perceived through touch (using fingertips or the palm of the hand).
-Digital accessibility: It incorporates a descriptive technical sheet, a QR code linking to an accessible digital platform (compatible with screen readers), and multimedia content (text, audio, and images).
-Physical base: The T-shirt, made of cotton, is part of the project “Braille and Digital Tactile Inclusive Art.” It is mounted on a SINTRA board (rigid PVC material, 5 mm thick) to ensure durability and tactile handling.
