Creative research collective exploring radical self-representation of non-normative voices through co-created immersive audiovisual installations.

The Stories Beyond Words project brings together a group of people with diverse communication impairments to co-create immersive audio-visual installations. These documentary-based artworks aim to challenge societal preconceptions about non-normative voices.

The group are collaborating to create their own radical self-representations of their communication, to creatively confront ‘dyslistening’. Across communities of people with non-normative voices, there is a push back against expectations to communicate within a convenient-for-others timeframe.
