A New Look at Disability

May 21, 2009

A New Look at Disability – (Abilities.ca). "Over the past two years, women living with disabilities and physical differences have taken part in 'Envisioning New Meanings of Disability and Difference,' a series of arts-based workshops across Ontario that use the power of image and story to transform the way people see difference. Workshop activities and discussions explored identity and the meaning we find in our experiences. Photography workshops put cameras in the hands of the participants, who used them as tools to create self-portraits – both literal and symbolic. These women also had the opportunity to make their own digital story to capture their perspective on life with a disability or difference. The artwork created formed a dynamic multimedia exhibit. The Envisioning Exhibit, shown in Toronto this past February, will tour the province throughout 2009."
