For the Sulman Prize - I Will Never Hear Words Ever! - a Deaf story of truth; mixed medium; 86 x 70 cm; $1500. People always assume I will hear words as soon as I put my cochlear implant on. Not so! Not ever! People are blind to awareness about Deafness and they are black and white about hearing. We Deaf people never had any auditory memory as that disappeared after we turn 5 and then we've missed the chance, unless we were implanted with cochlear implant before age of 5.
