About
In more than 30 works dating from the mid-1700s through today, Variance: Making, Unmaking, and Remaking Disability considers representations of the disabled and/or ill subject and foregrounds how body-mind variance shapes culture and informs technique, style, and form. Touching on topics from institutionalization and neurodiversity to Deaf gain and crip sex, this exhibition reflects on the ways disability has been stigmatized and centers the plurality and history of disability culture.
