This seminar explores disability representation in the visual arts sector; from lived experience of neurodivergence and disability, to further education, where art empowers young people as a tool for communication. We’ll look at what it means to be a curator working with artists who face barriers, and how these practices activate positive change. What do these changing spaces look like in practice?

Presentations with Matt Burrows (Exeter Phoenix), Anna Mankee-Williams (Falmouth University), Heather Peak (DASH) and Christopher Samuel (Artist).
