have a physical disability – Cerebral Palsy. This affects my speech and hand co-ordination. My awkward hand movements work to my advantage when I paint. This helps me to express all my frustration and it brings spontaneity to the paintings. Without being able to verbally communicate with strangers easily at first, my work acts like a visual voice.

I want to break down barriers between disabled and able-bodied people. For me, I don’t want any barriers in my way.
