Divided Portraits: Identity and Disability
Divided Portraits explores the impact of being wheelchair bound upon one's public and private identities. By painting each of her subjects on two canvasses, Cooper asks her audience, which do you see first: the person or the chair? The answer is one that matters deeply to the artist, who herself suffered a spinal cord injury and was rendered quadriplegic for months before the recovery of her motor skills.
