Description
Portraits & Portals is an artistic initiative designed to illustrate the impact of disasters and crises on people of color with disabilities. The project paired 9 disabled artists/creatives of color with 9 disabled disaster survivors of color to amplify issues at the intersection of Disaster Justice, Disability Justice and Racial Justice issues. Together, their creative collaborations transform lived experiences into works of art, including visual art, poetry, and music.
Now the time has arrived for us to virtually gather as we reveal final artworks, engage with the storytellers/artists behind each piece and to share creative space with Crip community.
