Earlier this year I was commissioned to work on a project by Curating for Change at the Museum of Liverpool. I spent time walking around the museum photographing and learning about disabled people’s stories with Iris Sirendi. It was a fascinating experience to tour the museum this way and see it from various disabled perspectives. There’s more information on the museum’s website and Iris has curated an exhibition in the atrium.
