Amplified Voices

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.

Featuring individual artists: Clyde Richard Brittain, David Purkis, Ivy Hazard, Johnny Tai, Kevo, Kiala Loytomaki, Mehboob Rajwani, Olivia Dreisinger, Tuyết Ánh Judith Nguyễn, and Warren Zeer.

Featuring collective artists: Artists Helping Artists with Diana Nguyen, Derek McElheron, Rosie Lam, and Malcom O’Neill; PotteryWorks and The Colour Collective with Dan Tell, James Lash, Linda Raudonus, and Robert Bell; Aspire Richmond with Abigayle Vallance and Melody Lorna Edgars; and Studio Seventy Three with Carrie Billow, Mridu Sood, and Stephanie Davison.
