Stories from people who are deaf and hard-of-hearing
Gordon Snelgrove Gallery: Prism Project
As an invisible disability, the experience of being non-culturally deaf or hard-of-hearing is often processed as a private internal experience. By coming together to share their stories, the participants in Prism Project found common ground through similarities and a broadening of perspectives through differences.
The gallery exhibition of Prism Project includes portraits, personal stories and videos of ASL translations for each participant; some participants have also contributed original artworks. Prism Project originated as a web project led by Sarah Vermette with the intent of acting as a portal for deaf/hard-of-hearing people to share their stories ( www.prismproject.ca ).
