CHALLENGE: How can an exhibition make tangible the experiences of navigating everyday life with a disability in Montréal—and inspire action by communities, governments, and individuals?
SOLUTION: Transform the research into a physical experience, rather than simply displaying information. Stories were printed on fabric panels interrupted by cut-out holes, forcing the text to weave around gaps. The constraint reflected the time, energy, and constant adaptation required to navigate an inaccessible city.
An interactive module invited visitors to commit to a recommended action by covering a gap with a sticker, turning individual commitments into a collective visual statement for action.
It was really important to me not to order a low-quality, mass-manufactured display for this project. Instead, I had the joy of working with a local ebinist to create a durable solution that respected the material of the research while being modular so that it could travel to other libraries and community spaces.
