• "Interview with Peter Vance"
  Peter Vance is a singer, songwriter, musician, performer, facilitator and disability arts advocate. Interview Summary: Peter Vance is a songwriter, performer, musician and singer. Peter suggested disability arts in the last 20 years has become more visible and popular reflecting a positive shift in how society views disability as part of the rich tapestry of human experience. This is reflected in how the arts now tell the stories of individuals with disabilities, not simply as artists with a disability, but as whole people whose varied experiences - visible and invisible - inform and enrich their creative expression. However, there are still challenges with funding and accessibility and ongoing struggles for recognition and support of disability art. Changes in how organisations operate to suit new funding such as the NDIS have potentially limited the spontaneity and personal touch that smaller, community-driven organizations once offered. Peter said it is essential to continue to push for better understanding, support, and visibility for people with all kinds of disabilities in every aspect of life, including the arts, to truly embrace inclusivity.

This is not a traditional text driven narrative, but a collection and superimposing of images with text. Although the perimeters may seem fluid, the work is structured around a base of Seven Virtues with twelve images per virtue of either sound, light and/or singing. Seven sections equal the Seven Virtues, each section to explore one virtue in its quarternity. The sections build one on another using the device of a palimpset of images to reinforce and deepen the audience experience through thematic reiterations."
