Unseen: Inside Out is our platform's forthcoming disability-led project. It is spearheaded by emerging youth performance artist Claire Teo in collaboration with Kira Lim and produced by Unseen Art Initiatives. Through this project, we hope to encourage conversations and question the public’s perspective and assumptions about disability.

The project is a collaborative process of creating a sensorial, immersive and accessible arts installation of sound works, together with a diverse group of 12 visually impaired co-creators, sound composer Clarence Chung and visual designer Samuel Woo. The work is grounded by the personal lived experiences and voices of the community, and we hope that through listening to these real voices, perspectives of the disabled community may begin to evolve through constructive and meaningful social change.

The art making process involved ample research and constant, ongoing dialogue—through which both Claire and Kira get to know each participant as individuals and co-creators, whose access needs, strengths and learning interests are at the heart and center of this work. This enables the artists to adopt a customisable working approach with each participant that involves sensory and tactile methods to teach performance techniques and direct the recording of the sound works. ​​​​​​​
