Joseph Rizzo Naudi is a blind writer and facilitator based in London, United Kingdom.

He is currently a Techne-funded postgraduate researcher at Royal Holloway, where he is exploring artwork description, fiction technique and blindness as a generative approach. His supervisors are Professor Hannah Thompson and Dr Karina Lickorish Quinn. His writing has been supported by Arts Council England and Spread The Word’s London Writers Awards.

Joseph’s practice involves working closely with artists, writers and curators to make exhibitions and artworks more engaging through the creative use of language. Since 2022, he has carried this out in the form of workshops, Audio Description interventions and text-based artworks with a range of organisations, including the Henry Moore Institute, Yorkshire Sculpture Park, the Wellcome Collection, Smartify and the National Gallery. He has previously collaborated with the W-ICAD project at the University of Westminster and the Beyond the Visual project at UAL.
