Unfolding Disability Futures
at The Plant, Chicago
Site-specific performances and installations by local disabled artists centered around the theme of “Disability Futures.”
Performances and installations highlight how The Plant has been redeveloped to make the building accessible in ways that are both functional and beautiful, proposing access not as a drain but a plentiful resource.
Made up of art installations and dance performances by local disabled artists, this collaborative project pulls together a vibrant and growing community of disabled artists working across mediums, including performance, sound design and visual art.
Unfolding Disability Futures highlights the work of five choreographers/performance artists, eleven dancers, and seven visual artists, each with their own connection to the disability community and their own take on the theme of "disability futures." Their work will be featured throughout The Plant, allowing for conversations to emerge between the artists and the space itself.
