In this episode of Art Heals All Wounds, I share a heartfelt voicemail from Paige Friend, host of ‘The Beach Speaks’ podcast, discussing her deaf mother’s journey of self-realization and acceptance facilitated by art. Ginny, developed her lip-reading skills, giving Paige a delightful way of communicating with her mother across a room. Unable to work, Ginny turned to painting and silk-screen printing, becoming a successful and celebrated artist, and finding a sense of belonging in the artistic world.
