Listen "Episode 22: Winnie Looby and Leah Schulz"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, UVM faculty member and academics coordinator Winnie Looby interviews Vermont artist Leah Schulz.
Leah's art directly references her experiences of multiple disabilities, as well as addressing and incorporating elements of who she was before she became disabled. Leah's painting "Cyclical Choices" (2023) is part of an exhibit of work by Vermont artists with disabilities. The exhibit is being produced by Inclusive Arts Vermont, and is being shown at the UVM Davis Center, in Burlington Vermont, before being shown around the state, and then returning to Burlington for an extended residency with the UVM Center on Disability and Community Inclusion. We'll hear from Leah about her journey as an artist, as well as how disability shapes her art, and what it's like to be back on the UVM campus -- this time as an exhibitor, instead of a student.
