Virtual Tour of "For Each Other" with exhibiting artist Kennedy Healy.

Join UIC Disability Cultural Center Director, Margaret Fink for a virtual tour of For Each Other, a group exhibition highlighting the ways a group of Chicago-based artists and collectives consider care in their work and in the contexts they create for their work.Exhibiting artist Kennedy Healy considers structures of care that constantly surround her but may be invisible to others. Many of her pieces incorporate medical bills, timesheets, and medical equipment, critiquing state systems of violence which are framed as systems of care. Rather than the American ideal of independence, Kennedy imagines a world built on interdependence.ABOUT:Kennedy Healy (she/her) is a Fat, Queer, Crip Chicago-based writer and consultant. Her work focuses on disability, accessibility, care, sexuality, media representation, and abolition. Most recently, she founded Crip Crap, a media company that makes media about disability, by and for disabled people. She is a Libra who loves plants, chicken wings, and feminist country music.
