This exhibition will feature large scale photographs taken in Liverpool (‘here’) and from countries across the world (‘there’). The images depict disabled people in their workplaces, challenging myths surrounding disability and employment, through positive depictions of disabled people in work. Accompanying the exhibition are stories from the people depicted.
The exhibition is accompanied by an online gallery of both disabled and non-disabled people at work. Contribute your image to this gallery by emailing it to marketing@dadafest.co.uk
There will be a series of 3 talks alongside the exhibition about employment, disability and art as a tool for social change. Details of these talks will be published here shortly.
