Stuti Behari is an artist-scholar working at the intersection of visual arts, disability studies, and collective creative practice. Shaped by their experiences growing up with a disability in India, their work examines how language and media shape the representation of marginalized bodies. They hold a BA from Lewis & Clark College in Rhetoric & Media Studies and Studio Art. Stuti’s visual practice explores disability through confrontation and vulnerability, drawing on lived experiences of chronic pain. Using charcoal and collage, they reconstruct the disabled body to challenge able-bodied norms and reframe disability as a question of access rather than deficiency. Through this work, they understand art-making as a practice of cripping representation.
