I know they will be many more materials out there I could use to print on and I want to research more into this and find out what I can possibly be able to print on. Presenting my work is important to raise awareness to the subject I am doing, this time it is disability but next time could be something different and I want my work to speak for myself, I want my photographs to mean something and have a purpose. Photographs can speak a 1000 words and I want these word to count and make an impact on the audience, by doing this I want to be able to help people who can not speak up from themselves.
