S. Proski

S. Proski is a blind/disabled artist, writer, and educator. Their practice engages with personal experiences of blindness through painting, textiles, sculpture, and text, with the aim of challenging the bias towards vision in art. Their work foregrounds the complexities of blind culture, its relationship to vision and language, and the embedded hierarchical structures that prioritize the ocularcentric. Proski negotiates the state of being blind, situated within the cross-contamination of material, exploring sensorially new modes of perception beyond the visual.
