The Power of Self
Description
This painting delivers a powerful message about societal perceptions and the challenges faced by individuals with disabilities. In the foreground, two men stand together, one visibly disabled with an injured leg, both gazing upward at a trophy symbolizing success, inside which a silhouette of a man in a suit reaches skyward. Surrounding them are thought bubbles and illustrations—a wheelchair user painting, a person sitting in despair, and another running—each connected by lines to a group of onlookers, representing society’s gaze and judgments. Among these, the word “LOSER” starkly highlights the stigma and stereotypes often imposed on people with disabilities. Through its layered imagery, the painting challenges these prejudices, urging viewers to move beyond limiting perceptions and recognize the strength, talent, and humanity of all individuals. It stands as a thought-provoking call for inclusivity, acceptance, and the reimagining of disability not as weakness, but as resilience and potential.
