Description
Large (A1) poster, part of a set from the Barbara Lisicki archive. 7 of 7
The poster is pink with an image of a group of disabled people surrounding a large pink love heart, with microphones singing and raising their arms in the air. They are all wearing t-shirts reading "Heart 'n' Soul". Above the photograph, in three red lines extending vertically from the top of the poster are the words LIBERTY, EQUALITY, DISABILITY. Beneath the photograph is text reading 'IMAGES OF A MOVEMENT' the last two words are highlighted in red.
Next to the photograph is a quote from the group talking about how good performing can be, and how it gives people strength.
This, and the other posters in this collection are part of The Creatures Time Forgot: Photography & The Construction of Disability Imagery by David Hevey, in association with Camerawork Gallery. Funded by the Joseph Rountree Foundation.
