Unseen Strengths: Diverse Expressions of Disability series
Unseen Strengths: Diverse Expressions of Disability
To commemorate Disability Pride Month, we created a series "Unseen Strengths: Diverse Expressions of Disability" to enhance visibility and deepen understanding of the disability community's experiences. Featuring the compelling photography of Steven H. Begleiter and Janine Wiedel, their powerful imagery from settings as varied as Missoula, Montana and London, UK not only reflects the lived realities of individuals facing accessibility challenges but also the broader dialogues and movements shaping disability rights today.
Steven H. Begleiter, a renowned photographer and adjunct professor based in Denver, has captured critical social issues through his lens, notably in his "Every Woman Matters" project in Missoula, Montana, highlighting accessibility challenges for disabled women in cancer screenings. This work led to the "Visitation" project, which through powerful imagery, advocated for economically viable modifications in home construction to improve accessibility, aiming to influence both builders and homeowners about the importance of inclusive housing designs.
