Watching 'Creating the Spectacle!' by Sue Austin, an installation for the 2012 Cultural Olympiad in the Clore Ballroom, Royal Festival Hall.
'Creating the Spectacle!' is a ground-breaking series of performances of an underwater wheelchair that leaves traces of its joy and freedom as it flies along through the water with its human occupant.
This surprising and unexpected juxtaposition is proving to be a powerful vehicle for transforming preconceptions about the wheelchair in the mind of the viewer as they then become part of the artwork too.
Conceived by Artistic Director Sue Austin and produced through Freewheeling, 'Creating the Spectacle!' aims to generate a widespread public debate about the nature and value of contemporary arts practice shaped by the experience of disability.
