Canon UK & Ireland has announced the next chapter of its ‘World Unseen’ photography exhibition, now coming to Dublin in partnership with the Photo Museum Ireland.

Following the exhibition’s successful debut last year at Somerset House in London, and other locations across Europe, the Middle East and Africa, ‘World Unseen’ will now be hosted in Dublin.

People can experience the tactile and sensory exhibition, through elevated prints, audio descriptions, and braille, from Wednesday 11th to Sunday 15th February 2026.

This immersive and accessible exhibition showcases the power of Canon’s elevated prints technology and its impact of enriching lives and businesses.

The exhibition is designed to make photography more inclusive and to demonstrate how technology can transform the way we engage with visual storytelling.

Visitors will encounter a series of striking images that showcase how imagery can be experienced through touch, to tell stories, communicate and evoke emotion.

The adaptations not only raise awareness of accessibility in the arts but also highlight how inclusive design can enhance experiences for all audiences.

Guido Jacobs, managing director, Canon UK & Ireland, said: “We believe that everyone should be able to experience the power of visual storytelling. ‘World Unseen’ is a testament to how technology can break down barriers and create meaningful, inclusive experiences for all.”

Trish Lambe, CEO & artistic director, Photo Museum Ireland, said: “Canon’s World Unseen exhibition celebrates what’s possible when art and technology work hand in hand.

“By opening up new sensory pathways into photography, World Unseen invites every visitor, sighted or visually impaired, to engage with images in a deeper, more connected way. We’re proud to host it here, for free, and for everyone.”

Canon’s elevated print technology, powered by its PRISMAelevate XL software and Arizona printer series, has been used globally to support museums and galleries in making art more inclusive.

Admission is free, and further information will be available via the Photo Museum Ireland’s website.
