Ann Silver
Deaf Identy crayons:The and Now
1999
Mixed Media
20" x 16"
Ann Silver was born deaf in Seattle, Washington. She received a BA from Galluadet in Commercial art. she does all different types of art, from posters, greeting cards, graphic design to name a few. I choose her for this exhibit because I liked her work. She reminds me a little of Andy Warhol in the way she uses every day items and makes them interesting. Below you will find a quote in which she is giving her take on the piece above.

"Centuries ago we were a box of crayons, not human beings. Because pathological, medical and audiological viewpoints have prevented us from being seen in a linguistic-cultural context, archaic labels have been embedded in our language and literature—some of which still exist in this day and age."
