After losing her ability to<br \/>\nhear, Janet received bilateral cochlear implants (CI) and has regained some<br \/>\nhearing with her implants. Morrow\u2019s newest installation is based on how her<br \/>\nimplants translate sounds she hasn\u2019t heard before and themes of<br \/>\n\u201cotherness\u201d and disability. A Community of Non-Normative Beings uses<br \/>\ntransparent materials to form abstracted structures, which are inflated to<br \/>\ncreate sculptural bodies that float and shimmer in the gallery. Accompanied<br \/>\nby industrial interiors and a \u201cCI Sonatina\u201d, Morrow\u2019s art transcends human<br \/>\nfrailty, and identifies the joy that may be found in even painful<br \/>\nsituations.<\/p>\n<p>A Community of Non-Normative Beings will be on view at Access Gallery,<br \/>\nlocated at 3701 Guadalupe, Suite 103, at the corner of 37th and Guadalupe,<br \/>\nfrom January 17 through February 25, 2011. An Opening Reception will be held<br \/>\non Saturday, January 22 from 6-8 pm. Access Gallery promotes artists with<br \/>\ndisabilities from across the state of Texas. Gallery hours are Mondays<br \/>\nthrough Friday, 12 &#8211; 5 pm.
