In this mural, the central theme being explored is that of a visual tapestry where multiple stories and narratives come together to form a cohesive portrayal of the intersection of disability, time, rest, and their interaction with queer realities. The mural will also incorporate multimedia/multi-sensorial components to enhance the storytelling and engage the audience on a deeper level.
The idea is to create a space that compels the engager to pause, absorb, and reflect on their existing understanding of the concepts being explored and leave with newer imaginations of how they see this very intersection.
Currently, the intricate interplay of time, rest, and ableism in the lives of queer and disabled individuals is approached with a linearity that comes across as very reductive to actual lived experiences. The mural will illustrate how these elements intersect, influence, and shape each other, creating a unique rhythm of life that is often misunderstood or overlooked by society.
