-- A deaf and blind man is learning to communicate a whole new way. He is creating expressive sculptures, thanks to training at the Helen Keller National Center on Long Island."When I make this copper art, it just makes me feel so amazing and it makes me feel like I'm inspiring others," Giordano said.Giordano was born deaf, and four years ago diabetes left him blind, too.
For decades, his skilled hands worked in a welding career and as a luxury car mechanic. Now, at the Helen Keller National Center in Port Washington, Giordano has learned tactile sign language and how to express himself in what's thought of as a visual medium. Each of his metal sculptures conveys something about his personal mettle -- remarkably overcoming challenges. One sold for $1,000 at a Southampton art gallery -- the sign for: I love you.
