In Feeling: Empathy and Tension Through Disability explores the intricate dynamics of empathy within the context of disability through the works of nine contemporary artists. The exhibition delves into how empathizing can create both understanding and tension, prompting viewers to reconsider their assumptions about lives shaped by disability. Featured artists include Liza Sylvestre, JJJJJerome Ellis, and Molly Joyce, among others. Curated by Molly Joyce and Kristen Nassif, this exhibition opens on August 30, 2025, at The Fralin Museum of Art at the University of Virginia.
