In honor of @Coda_Movie's #Oscar win, @Riva_leher posted her portrait of @lendavis (Distinguished Prof, English, Disability Studies, & Medical Ed @thisisUIC). Davis' memoir shares his life as a #CODA. Hear him at @Spertus' Critical Conversations 4/10 spertus.edu/conversation2022
In honor of the win, I (re)post my portrait of @lendavis who focused on his life as a Child of Deaf Adults. The small pattern behind him is a dense field of the word CODA.

The arts help us build a foundation for engaged, integrated, and connected lives—and that has everything to do with health.
