Nexus/Bodyworks was a two-year multifaceted art and education project highlighting the work of artists with different physical disabilities. Produced by the Nexus artists themselves, Bodyworks documents their struggles with different media and perceptions, advocating that the integrity of artistic practice is more important than the artist’s (dis)ability. Established in 1975, Nexus Foundation for Today’s Art is an artist-run, not-for-profit exhibition space and an incubator for local emerging and experimental artists.
