Colors Like Sounds: What Do the Paintings of Deaf Children Say?

December 10 – 24, 2020
National Art Museum, Minsk
The exhibition is dedicated to the anniversary of the existence of the art school “Above the Roof” for deaf and hard of hearing children and was held for the first time with the support of the National Art Museum of the Republic of Belarus.

With this exhibition we showed that deaf children are creative. Visual activity for such children is not only one of the most important, but also the most accessible means of aesthetic education.

The influence of music, dance, artistic reading due to the characteristics of hearing and speech impairment in children of this category is somewhat less compared to visual activities.

Are there prejudices against deaf people? YES! Because we are “others”.

We attract attention with “expressive gestures”, “live facial expressions” and plasticity. With this exhibition we also want to attract attention to ourselves through artistic means, to share our creativity with you, dear friends!

Our school educates children from families of deaf and hearing parents. In the second case, the child is often raised as if simultaneously in two cultures. Hearing culture and deaf culture have differences. But in any case, the child’s visual activity, which he is just beginning to master, needs qualified guidance from an adult.

At our school, this is an artist-painter, a teacher with a hearing impairment, Andrey Olegovich Ignatenko. Currently a graduate of the Belarusian State Academy of Arts. Andrey is well versed in the fine arts, in children's creativity, and masters all the necessary methods and methods, so he manages to develop in each student the creative abilities inherent in nature. Classes with such a teacher give children the joy of learning and creativity. Having felt this feeling once, the child will strive to experience it again and again, in his drawings and crafts to tell about what he learned, saw, and experienced.

For the aesthetic education of children and for the development of their visual abilities, acquaintance with works of fine art in the National Art Museum is of great importance.

The brightness and expressiveness of images in paintings, sculpture, architecture and works of applied art evoke aesthetic experiences, help to perceive the phenomena of life more deeply and fully and find figurative expressions of one’s impressions in drawing, modeling, and appliqué.

We want to share our artistic taste with the hearing world and erase the boundaries that still exist between the macro-society of the hearing and the micro-society of the deaf!
