Crossing the Bridge
13th APRIL 2007: Exhibition opening at the Serpentine Gallery.
“Crossing the Bridge” showcases the diverse talents of young artists
studying with RED - REALISE EVERY DREAM - Inc,
a Lismore based organisation providing support services
for young people with disabilities who have finished high school.
Featuring over 100 artworks from more than 25 artists who are aged 18-30,
the exhibition is a bridge for these young people
to communicate their world to the wider community.
“Art is a vehicle that bridges the gap and enhances communication
for artists with disabilities and the wider community.
It’s also something that can highlight the positive aspects of disability culture”,
- Red Inc art teacher Kerrie Divett.
