‘Not Going Anywhere’ is a Disability Art exhibition in Yorkshire, led by the lived experiences of Disabled People, and is for, everyone.
We asked people to respond ‘creatively’ to the following themes;
- Disabled people in the lockdown.
- Living disability experience(s).
- T’ social model (in Yorkshire).
- Accessibility.
The exhibition includes a range of work, paintings, drawing, collage, film, photo, poetry and sounds that explore these themes in detail. There are 15 pieces of art shown from 11 artists, plus one community organisation with multiple artists.
The exhibition will be presented in two ways, from 1st December 2021, until the end of February 2022.
The first will be an online gallery here at sidbaility.net. This presents all the submissions visually and with text descriptions.
The second will be at York Explore, Central Library https://exploreyork.org.uk/york-explore/ on a large wall space in the café area. This is presented together in a sort of photo wall mosaic, clipped together and hung as a large piece.
