Invisible Visible - Bishop Auckland Town Hall

About

Being disabled can feel akin to being both invisible and hyper visible, without ever really feeling seen.

Invisible Visible invites an unflinching foray into the individual and collective experiences of those with disabilities in the workplace, illustrating the stories that need to be centred in order to incite change towards a better world.

This exhibition details seven unique and anonymous first-hand accounts of being disabled in the workplace, translated into visual language to incite conversations around a topic that is too often treated as taboo. With unabashed honesty the collection chronicles a narrative forgone by wider society, and which challenges the very foundation of our relationship with both work and disability.

Invisible Visible is created by artist Hope Caitlin in collaboration with social enterprise organisation Changing Relations and in partnership with Bishop Auckland Town Hall and Durham University.
