ARTIST STATEMENT:
As many as one in five of us may be disabled.
It is highly unlikely that you will ever give a performance or lecture, or hold an event or exhibition, without substantial numbers of disabled people being part of your target audience…
Most of us are likely to become disabled at some point in our lives; disability is not about ‘us and them’ but all of us.
-Ju Gosling’s article “No Budget Guide for Artists to Disability Access”

Bled
ARTIST NOTES ON BLED:
Bled was shot on National Holocaust Memorial Day. The parking space markings have recently been burned off by a furious council workman because the disabled woman who has lived in the next house to me for 65 years doesn't own her own car (but depends on her son's). When I shot it I was showing how another driver was stopping her from using the space; we may not bleed externally from the difficulties this causes but we still suffer.
