DISABILITY ARTS
Disability Arts is a young arts movement which first emerged during the 1980s. Disabled people who were influenced by the new ideas and lifestyles promoted by the Disabled people's movement began to use their artistic skills to express their feelings, life experiences, beliefs and attitudes and produce issue-based work.
In more recent times the work has continued to evolve its politics and its aesthetics and incorporates the representation of the cultural identities of disabled people.
