Two Degrees is a disability-led community arts and cultural development project exploring the urgent themes of disability and climate change. Bringing together a number of artforms – writing, performance, film, sound, multimedia – and 14 incredible artists and collectives from the disability community, each with their own take on climate change.
Two Degrees featured Deaf and Disabled artists are Abbie Madden, Ana Maria Gomides, CB Mako, Diimpa, Echo Collective, Erin Kyan, Inkrewsive, Jonathon Goodfellow, Nemeses, Ramas McRae, Sarah Firth, Shakira Hussein, Walter Kadiki and Way Out West.
Whether comical or serious, abstract or literal, their pieces are united by the understanding that art and storytelling are powerful tools for education, inspiration and action. Importantly, they also place Deaf and Disabled creatives centre stage in a conversation that has taken on increased urgency, where otherwise we would be left on the sidelines.
