The Expansion Of Expression By Releasing From Stereotyping By Physicality

Abstract

The paper discusses that nearly one-fifth of the world's population are people with disabilities and the incidence of it is increasing year by year. Even though the omnipresence of disability is the truth, the stereotype of it have rarely not been transformed. The number of disabled people activing as a performing artist, which express their identity, is rising steadily. Disabled body studies in performance should not be left any more by deaing as a minority case.
