A Belfast 'university' is providing support and opportunities for deaf, disabled and neurodivergent artists across Northern Ireland.
The University of Atypical is a charity that was founded around 30 years ago in an effort to support established and up and coming artists who are deaf, disabled or neurodiverse by providing them with support within the industry and a platform to promote their work.
Amy Hannah is one artist who has been helped by the charity and recently graduated from the Belfast School of Art at Ulster University and received the University of Atypical Graduate Art Award for 2022.
