Alternative Interpretation – Quote about this artwork from a community member with lived experience of disability, D/deafness and/or neurodivergence. Given as part of the ‘Go as you Please’, Curating for Change, exhibition project: “That question is so in your face, and it elicits a response, ‘Why don’t you get out and about more?’ You know, there’s loads of reasons, not just for me as a disabled person, but for anyone. I think there are certain expectations of what is normal, or what everyone wants to do or is able to do.“

On the flip side, disabled people can challenge this question.

“We’ve got to get out there, we’ve got to be seen, we’ve got to keep doing things, getting out there. Because if we don’t go out, people won’t know, and if we just stay indoors, and stay in our little safe bubble nobody will see us, and be able to experience us, and experience interacting with us, and knowing who we are and what we as disabled people need, what we can do, and what we want to do”.
