Jason is a disabled digital artist who initially trained as an oil painter before learning to ‘embrace the pixel’ and use digital technology when he became disabled. This particular exhibition saw Jason working with disabled communities around the UK to design the work, including Venture Arts in Manchester and groups in North Lincolnshire, Hull, Corby and London.
Exploring themes of disability, this new body of work tells the stories of these geographically diverse, learning-disabled groups, mixing them with Jason’s own biography, creating new narratives and myths about the artist.
This exhibition and activity programme have been supported by Flux Rotherham and Accessible UK with funding from Arts Council England and is a 20-21 Visual Arts Centre Touring Exhibition with thanks to Shape Arts and North Lincolnshire Council.
