Feeling overwhelmed and anxious are just some of the emotions from a long list one Nottinghamshire artist has felt due to being deaf. Her "hidden disability", however, is not stopping her.
Around 151,000 UK residents use British Sign Language (BSL) - and 21-year-old Zoe Milner is one of them. Zoe, who is from Lowdham, has spoken out about the struggles people who are deaf face on a day-to-day basis - and through art, she hopes her new exhibition, called 'I talk with my hands', will raise awareness.
Zoe was born deaf. From a young age, however, she found art to express herself and once impressed her grandad by drawing a £20 note along with all its intricate detailing.
