PHYSICAL BODY: INVISIBLE STUTTER


"Physical Body: Invisible Stutter" is a photo series that brings the concept of stuttering as an invisible disability to light. More than 70 million people worldwide stutter yet the stigma against stuttering and people who stutter is still prevalent across countries and cultures today.


The black and white photographs alongside written text provide a visual comparison of words as invisible speech and the physical human body. Words have the unique function of appearing visible to the eye as text while also heard, though unseen, when spoken out loud. For people who stutter, words can also be trapped within the human body. The photographs were taken indoors in natural light and then produced in a black and white format to highlight the gray area between what is observed and what is hidden to the naked eye.
