This artist 'visualizes' world for the blind
Vadodara: This 29-year-old artist from the city paints not what he sees 
but what the blind feel. And, his sole aim behind creating artworks is 
to create awareness about eye donation.

At Bhavsing Bambhaniya's exhibition, the visually challenged also have 
the opportunity to relish some artworks.

Bambhaniya, a former student of M S University's Faculty of Fine Arts, 
now paints to create awareness about eye donation. Since childhood, 
Bambhaniya has been concerned about the difficulties faced by disabled 
people. He would spend hours understanding their state of mind.
