Painting an empowering picture: group exhibition offers platform for artists with disability

As galleries and businesses across South Australia embrace the month of SALA – a group exhibition showcasing artwork by people living with disability has opened doors to reveal 120 artworks.

Myriad, now in its fifth year – provides artists with a platform to empower self-expression, celebrate individual talent and offer meaningful contributions to their community – with one feature artist saying they “have found peace” through art.

The exhibition, presented by Community Living Australia in partnership with State Library of South Australia includes 68 artists.

So, just how empowering is the universal language of art?
