strength in Vulnerability - photo exhibition
deconstructing ableism: profiles of success, determination and perseverance
Strength In Vulnerability was a project I had the opportunity to work on for 6 months at the end of 2022 and the beginning of 2023. Over the 6 months, I met with, interviewed, and photographed 18 people who live in and around the Birmingham Alabama area, all living with varying disabilities. The goal was to talk more about their experiences living with disabilities and showcase the different ways that people adapt, and overcome adversity.
The images now hang at the National Center for Health Physical Activity and Disability (NCHPAD) headquarters in Birmingham Alabama and act as an interactive exhibition telling these individuals stories.
