Senses of Care- Mediated Ability and Interdependence (35 of 80)
The exhibition features an array of artifacts and works by artists and design initiatives that raise provocative questions about the dynamics of care, interdependence and diversity of ability. Senses of Care features artists whose work deals with topics ranging from disability fashion to do-it-yourself (DIY) prosthetic to creative modes of reframing sensory experience, for example, foregrounding our bodily sensation of sound by a Deaf performance artist. These projects point us toward a spectrum of possibilities that emerge around what are commonly understood as limits or challenges to ability. The represented artists demonstrate ways of reorienting notions of "challenged" away from individual capability and toward challenges of forging an open and inclusive world.
