Voices Embodied Project was conceived/curated? by Alex Stark who earned his BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2016. Alex is  currently an advisor and event planner in SAIC’s Disability and Learning Resource Center. After earning his BFA, Alex chose to offer his perspective as a disabled artist, focusing on the representation of disability in a larger diversity conversation happening at the School. In addition to his disability related work, Alex is a practicing painter who has shown work in LA, New York, Chicago and Colorado. Considering both an interest  in art, and a passion for creating platforms for voices to be heard, Alex advocates for creative expression.
