Bencie-Woll-Light-Wave-Project-Newsletter-2021

2021 saw the realisation of the “Light-Wave” project, where Deaf artist Rubbena Aurangzeb-Tariq and Prof. Bencie Woll, together with members of the East London Deaf community, examined the underrepresentation of the Deaf community in cultural discourse. They focused on the community’s history, culture, Sign Language development and use, and collaboratively explored the potential of Zoom as a site of co-creation for Deaf people.
