Amplified Voices celebrates the creativity and raw storytelling told by our artists living with disabilities. By questioning the limits to space made for Disability culture, this exhibition navigates the stigma and barriers many artists face. These works challenge conventional ideas and transform traditional art practices into one that is humane, therapeutic, and liberating.
Join us at our opening celebration on May 11th to celebrate with our 23 artists in this exhibition, Amplified Voices! There will be disability-led workshops, panel talk hosted by Museum of Migration as well as performances with All Bodies Dance from May to July! All bodies are welcome.
Featuring individual artists: David Purkis, Ivy Hazard, Johnny Tai, Kevo, Kiala Loytomaki, Mehboob Rajwani, Olivia Dreisinger, Richard Brittain, Tuyết Ánh Judith Nguyễn, and Warren Zeer.
