MTV interview the artist about the album and he said fans would be able to feel the braille on the cover and in the album booklet
Quote:
MTV: When the actual CD is printed up, will the braille be on there? Will we be able to feel it?
Nachum: Definitely. This is, I think, the first album ever that incorporates physical braille on the album. Wherever you have braille on my canvas, you’re going to feel [it], it’s going to be raised.

He also talks about how the collaboration came about between he and Rihanna....she was introduced to his work when she saw a painting that Tyty had and then reached out
Quote:
[B]MTV: How long were you working on the pieces?
[B]Nachum: We met in L.A. and we talked about the concept and ideas. Then we met again in my studio in New York. We talked more and more. And then I started to do sketches and put it all together. From that point, it took me another two months to complete the painting, and then we worked on the fire series inside the album. I wanted to see how Rihanna touched the work, and how she experienced those paintings without sight, and you can see her fingerprints touching the work and experiencing it, while she was listening to her music from the album. It was a very interesting moment to see. I didn’t know what it was going to look like. She didn’t know what it was going to look like. She went with my vision, and I think it became fantastic
