Eight Korean disabled artists took part in Sync South Korea, which was co-funded by British Council Korea and the Centre for Disabled Culture and the Arts, I-Eum<\/a> based in Seoul. The programme proved that when we think all will be lost in translation, there is much to gain in creating superlative best practice access so artists can make new ground, literally and metaphorically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Co-founders Sarah Pickthall and Jo Verrent have always felt that exploring social constructs and situations disabled communities have faced historically is an important part of any Sync programme working internationally.
