HOLEY WHOLLY HOLY: VISUALIZING JEWISH DISABILITY JUSTICE By Sharoni Sibony

ABOUT THE EXHIBIT B'tzelem Elohim: we're all created in God's image. Whatever shape we're in, we're all simultaneously messy and gloriously whole and dignified. How can visual imagery help us envision a more just, inclusive world for people of all abilities? Through her art practice, Sharoni Sibony has been exploring how we embody our spiritual lives, how chronic illness affects our relationship to community and belonging, and how Jewish spaces can be more spiritually centering places of recursive healing and interdependence. This exhibition features a series of images that she created for the JCC Association of North America's Eight Guiding Principles on Inclusion.

ABOUT THE ARTIST Sharoni Sibony is an educator, artist, creative facilitator, and community organizer. She has been a lecturer, tour guide, pottery instructor, and book club facilitator in various venues across the Toronto community and has worked and volunteered in Jewish adult educational programming and event management through organizations that include Kolel at the Prosserman JCC, the Miles Nadal JCC, Ashkenaz Festival, Holy Blossom Temple, and Limmud Toronto.
