RADICAL RESILIENCE


MARCH 28 - JUNE 7, 2024

Radical Resilience is an annual exhibition at Ruth’s Table highlighting Bay Area artists who are deeply engaged in creating art while also living with disabilities, whether visible or invisible. Across a thrilling assortment of different artistic disciplines and styles, we aim to showcase some of the extraordinary ways these artists forge unique paths toward self-expression.


Each of these artists exemplifies a radical spirit by choosing life in all its complexities while refusing to be confined or reduced by societal oppression, setbacks, or perceived limitations. Many of the artists featured in this exhibition have been involved with social justice and human rights issues, including anti-war efforts, racial equity, LGBTQ+ activism, feminism, and the disability rights movement. Being radically resilient is about more than perseverance; it's about slowing down, being intentional, and often pushing beyond the mainstream to achieve creative freedom. 


Radical resilience is at the core of our collective ability to survive, sustain, thrive, and create. We can all gain something by celebrating our pathways and ourselves as we are. The dazzling art exhibited here invites us to recognize that however our bodies and minds may influence us, they do not define us.
