A devised creation inspired by Plato’s Atlantis, the project featured GHL’s unique approach to incivility “Active Access Design”. Access tools are incorporated into the devising process as creative obstacles, ensuring the work is accessible in every moment.
This project featured the incorperation of audio description, captioning, and sign in creation.
