Hi I’m Kevin, I have Cerebral Palsy and a bad speech problem!

BUT DON’T BE FOOLED AS ARTISTS WE MUST LOOK BEYOND FOR THE

DEEPER MEANING

I recently graduated with a dance theatre degree from Plymouth uni

This is Zoe, laying on a skateboard and me hitching a ride!

Creating with EXIM Dance Co / Adam Benjamin

I’m also a model / life model at the art college and uni [free to students]

Last Year I was introduced to the first year dancers early in the term. In the second term 5 of the them

performed in my final piece

So why do I tell you this? Well before you all get really busy later in term and haven’t got time to get your head around my disability and communication issues, over the next month just think about chatting to me?Once you do and decide working with Kevin is the last thing I want to do, that’s kool! Even though you may decide this the experience may open new possibilities!

Finally, all I want to say to you is don’t be afraid of me “sometimes good artists embrace the unknown”! So ask me anything, please..

Kasia Andrews was a 1st year when we began to collaborate, the painting abrove from her 3rd year came second in the Statchi & Statchi national portrait competition

Here is the poster from my final performance and thanks to five great first years, the performance received a FIRST!

Ok I’m a social media whore.

My email or Imessage address is [email protected]

I am disabledkevin on Facebook Twitter YouTube G+ and several other sites!

For reasons I don’t understand some people won’t message me in case I

constantly message them, please can I assure you that I won’t I’m busy!
