ABOUT
Championing disability in the arts and technology
ARTXV is a creative hub and community for disabled and neurodivergent artists, specialising in creating opportunities in emerging and alternative creative industries.
Founded in 2021 by Ava and her sister Tara, an autistic, non-verbal artist, ARTXV was born as a response to the lack of opportunities for disabled artists in the traditional art world.
From traditional art forms like collage, stippling and watercolour to experimental techniques like generative AI and blockchain art, the ARTXV collective has embraced all forms of art and has delved into a range of creative industries.
Centred around celebration, ARTXV amplifies the work and stories of the disabled community that have long been undiscovered, showing the world the beauty and unique perspective that disabled artists bring to the art world.

"The art world is by nature full of extraordinary things. It is a shame that so many neurodiverse artists, often with unique interpretations, experiences and talent of the world around them have struggled to find a home within it. ARTXV have built one."
- Caleb Lewis, artist
