BEE Inclusive: ‘Bee Visible’ SEND Art Exhibition
The Bee Inclusive, ‘Bee Visible’ Art Exhibition Event was an unforgettable display of creativity and extraordinary talent,amplifying the voices and perspectives of our children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND).
These unique art pieces gave us a powerful glimpse into the lives and experiences of these young people, highlighting their invaluable perspectives, special interests, and views of the world. The exhibition displayed art exploring a variety of subject matters and personal interests using a range of mediums and techniques from coloured acrylics and coloured pencils to lino printing and even Lego!
Alongside this artwork, powerful and provocative art pieces and installations from professional artists confronted us with the realities of some of the lived experiences of those with additional needs in our society.
Not only was this event a celebration of SEND talent and expression, but the art projects and workshops leading up to the exhibition ensured accessibility was at the centre of this process with a range of equipment and materials on offer to cater to all artists. The Bee Inclusive SEND Art Club gave children and young people as pace to express themselves, create, and socialise together as they worked in partnership towards this outstanding achievement.
There was an overwhelming sense of community at this event, with the artwork inspiring a buzz of conversations ranging from the hardship’s individuals with additional needs experience to the affectionate and humorous anecdotes that encapsulated the experience of having a loved one who experiences and processes the world so uniquely.
