Exhibit showcases underwater photography by disability culture collective

Lane Hall hosts the opening from 4-6 p.m. Monday of the exhibit “Salamander.” It features photographs and text created by The Olimpias artist collective, a group of disability culture activists and their allies, led by artistic director Professor Petra Kuppers. The artists use underwater photography, dry performance workshops, creative writing and video to find their disabled beauty emerging from the deep, wild aesthetic of water. This community arts exhibit will change and grow throughout the term, with students and community members responding to the images and narratives. The exhibit runs through Dec. 5.
