About the artwork
Listen to the artist statement for Listening Ears
Listening ears from my community and supports help me learn, work toward my goals, and engage meaningfully with others so I can live a thriving, fulfilling life. People with disabilities, like myself, need to be truly heard - with ears pricked up, just like my favourite animals: dogs, cats, and bunnies.
About the artist - Hannah Millar
My name is Hannah and I am 13 years old. I enjoy singing and hanging around with animals - especially dogs, cats and bunnies.
I was born with a rare neurological condition, Agenesis of the Corpus Callosum, where the 200 million nerve fibres that connect the left and right hemisphere of the brain did not form. Every aspect of living and learning is challenging, and I am grateful for the support from therapists, teachers, and my church community.
People around me tell me they love the way I sing and groove like nobody's watching, how I show interest in others and remember their names.
