Art Work as an Inclusive Space
Drawing on an interdisciplinary research arts project in collaboration with a day activity centre (DAC) with an artistic profile, we explore the dynamic of caring relationships, that is, the interaction between the staff and the participants, within welfare settings aimed at people with disabilities. Our research takes its point of departure in critical disability studies (CDS). The power dynamic of caring relationships is often imbued with pater…

Artistry and disability – Doing art for real? Affordances at a day activity centre with an artistic profile
Taking our point of departure from critical disability studies, this study explores affordances of a day activity centre with an artistic profile.

This article draws on a socio-cultural approach to explore parents' understandings and management of child food allergy in the context of everyday life, as 'situated' risk.…
