ZOJA KALINOVSKIS, UNSEEN
“An estimated 1.3 billion people in the world live with significant disabilities, making disabled people the largest minority group, yet representation in art remains inadequate and tokenistic. Unseen is a deeply personal project from artist Zoja Kalinovskis which seeks to redefine what disability looks like by including individuals with both visible and invisible disabilities.
Inspired by classical sculpture, Unseen portrays disabled bodies with reverence - as worthy of art instead of objects of pity. The series challenges the narrative that disability is synonymous with suffering and seeks to dismantle societal prejudices.” - Autograph
