For Dear Life:
Art, Medicine, and Disability, an exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego, chronicles the experience of illness through art, what it looks like, how it feels.
Senior curator Jill Dawsey:
Jill Dawsey, Senior Curator, Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego: The idea of holding on, it evokes kind of an extreme state of being, but we hope it might also kind of conjure up the idea of holding on to something else, whether it is holding on to your seat, holding on to an assistive device, like a grab bar, holding on to someone else, and also thinking about the idea that it’s in the act of holding on that life becomes dear.
