Starting out as an interactive* installation, “(it might be disability, but) its Still Life” is more about the total impression than the individual pieces. Part of an action research project exploring identity and relationships, the work continues to present challenges to its audience and an invitation to rethink contexts.
Here is more than meet the eye.
With points of access for both the non-disabled and disabled audience, it offers a brief glimpse into the life of the artist. Like all lives it contains mainly own work, but there are also gifts and interpretations of other peoples’ stories. Here are loved ones and brief aquaintances; journeys and personal events, and some quirky, humourous views of the landscapes we inhabit.
Life with a disabled gaze.
* “(it might be disability, but) its Still Life” does remain gently interactive. Touch and examine the babies forming in their white fabric wombs. Read the poetry in the black-tail leaflets, take a closer look at the drawers in the “Little Tribute to Love” but above all do put yourself in the picture. Who are you? Leave a portrait, some words or a doodle.
