"This [series] imagines seeing disabled bodies in fresh ways: extraordinary rather than as abnormal...to critique the politics of appearance that governs our interpretation of the physical difference, to suggest that disability requires accomodation rather than compensation, and to shift our conception of disability from pathology to identity."

-Rosemarie Garland Thomson, Extraordinary Bodies: Figuring Physical Disability in American Culture and Literature.
