[Jennifer Justice]

Sacks in conversation with the vibrant disability culture of the Bay Area,
including the Disability Visibility Project. *

*Opening September 26, 2015 at StoreFrontLab, the project features artists
who explore a range of brain and body phenomena suggestive of Sacks’
research. These works explore the influence Sacks has had on our
understanding of the human condition in its limitless variation and form.*

*Indigo Mind regards the idiosyncrasies of the body and mind as a pathway
to creativity. The Unknown and the Other, to which Sacks has dedicated his
life’s work, are deeply valued for their neuro- and physiological
diversity; the unique qualities of being human that enables us to discover
new ground.*
