Photo Gallery and Video: Do You Understand by Jack Smallwood

A film produced by Jack Smallwood portrays the emotions expressed by D/deaf people via a new short BSL poem. The poem tackles the concept of dual identity with D/deafness in relation to selfhood and features people who are deaf/hard of hearing and are born, raised and live in Wolverhampton.

The film was commissioned as part of Offsite9 and was shown at Wolverhampton Art Gallery and the Light House.

You can also watch the film below.
