Devices or technologies that serve as tools for a physically disabled body are generally understood as support rather than embodiment.
Making these tools an integral component of visual art forms is not only a vibrant arena for cultural production but, by becoming embodied as artwork, also fosters the dialogue and expands the meaning of simply what a body is and what it can do.
