Disability Art
[edit]Disability art refers to the exploration of the disability experience through an art form or content by an individual.[1] Disability art focuses on the expression of the positive identity of disability with the concept of disability art relating to theater, performance, music, literature, and art; which is intended for both, able and disabled. Disability art is developed through themes, support communities and artist who are disabled.
Themes
[edit]Themes in disability art incorporate with the individual past, and present of how they look at their disadvantages. These disadvantages can be resulted to creating work to better understanding them, to those who do not. The themes that surround disability art are stereotypes, advantages, disadvantages, inclusion, exclusion, physical and mental health. [2]

While deconstructing the discrimination practices and policies faced by disabled artists, programs and studios work to support and evolve the community of experienced artists.[6] Some places are professional studios where disabled people can work, create, and put on a show. Communities as such are Art Enables[7], Disability/Arts/NYC (DANT). Other places that supports disabled artists are places like Shape Arts which is a funded arts charity by the Arts Council England, that provides disable individuals the opportunity to work in the arts.
