Art Gallery
As part of this year's conference, we reached out to artists with disabilities and asked them to submit artwork connected to one or more knowledge translation topics. Some artists created new artwork, and others submitted existing artwork. Each artist submitted a statement that helps gallery attendees learn more about the artwork and how it relates to the knowledge translation topics. Artists also submitted photos and bios. The knowledge translation topics we presented to the artists were:
- Art as a powerful tool for sharing information with the disability community
- The importance of relationships in the exchange of information
- The need for more inclusive ways of generating and sharing research
- The importance of sharing research findings with people with disabilities
- The best ways to share research findings with people with disabilities
The Center on KTDRR is sharing these statements from the artists, and KTDRR staff made no edits to the text. In addition, after KTDRR staff recorded the descriptions artists submitted of their work, in some instances artists requested slight changes to the text. You may therefore notice slight differences between the written and audio descriptions.
