About Us

Based in Toronto, Tangled Art + Disability is boldly redefining how the world experiences art and those who create it. We are a not-for-profit art + disability organization dedicated to connecting professional and emerging artists, the arts community, and a diverse public through creative passion and artistic excellence. Our mandate is to support disability-identified artists, to cultivate Disability Arts in Canada, and to enhance access to the arts for artists and all audiences.

What’s On at the Gallery

A white gallery wall displays a horizontal arrangement of collages, drawings, prints, and mixed-media pieces, neatly pinned in a line across the upper half. Below, a long, narrow shelf holds a wide variety of zines and small books, arranged side by side with vibrant covers. A warm brown wooden floor is visible at the bottom of the image.

The concepts of sound, and unsound, are determined by physics and culture.

The fact that sound does travel, but is also a cautionary idiom that private conversation or secrets may be overheard in specific public spaces is a duality that is compelling by itself in the context of creating an expansive intermedia project. 

Dates: March 6 – May 1, 2026

Concentric squares of colour radiate outward from the centre in smooth, rhythmic layers. The palette moves through a spectrum of yellows—soft lemon, amber, gold, ochre, and orange—each hue shifting subtly into the next.
