The Drawing Room with Patricia Karvelas

Program: Chiseling away at capitalism: Art, disability, and productivity

Space to play or pause, M to mute, left and right arrows to seek, up and down arrows for volume.

Artist Amanda Bennetts has had to rediscover her place in the working world after being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis and a rare muscular disease.

Her short film Carve Crevice with Grace explores our ideas of 'usefulness' and productivity specifically for those who live with disability and chronic illness and how their bodies fit into a society obsessed with productivity and efficiency. 

Guest: Amanda Bennetts, Artist
