While We Are Here

Through a tapestry of letters, journals, and art, Chicago-based artist Reveca Torres engages in a dialogue with iconic disabled artists Frida Kahlo, Vincent Van Gogh, and Henri Matisse who have inspired a new generation of artists. Bridging time and space, she intertwines the lives and works of Kahlo, Van Gogh, and Matisse with the works of contemporary artists with disabilities.
