    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[The acrylic painting shows two knotted arms/hands that express a bond, whilst the hands are signing letters M and F, which in BSL mean mother and father. The hands are labelled by the handwritten words „mother“ and „father“ whereas the bumpy reef knot the arms created is labelled by the handwritten word „deaf“, showing the deaf experience behind the signing. The background is dark green, and the hands are painted yellow and a bit of red, to make the contrast and shadows where needed.]]></dcterms:description>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[&quot;Mother Father Deaf&quot; - This painting by acrylic on canvas shows my De’VIA experience as a deaf parent of CODA children. Both my boys are hearing, born to deaf parents. I am raising them up making sure they know our deaf culture, community, sign language. As my exhusband is British, my boys can sign British Sign Language (BSL) and myself, I am Czech, so they know also Czech Sign Language (ČZJ). The painting expresses the parental bonding and deaf experience in the form of a bumpy reef knot, signing Mother &amp; Father in BSL.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[The four ASL words from left to right in this painting are CHAMP (awesome), COOL, INSPIRE, and PAH (finally).  A beautifully vibrant composition with visual lines indicate spatial image movements. ASL movement shows positive energy and is carefully integrated into the overall composition. The strong colors and energy of this artwork shows my happiness at being Deaf, and celebrating my Deaf identity. ]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Two women side by side have their hands in front of them. They are racially, culturally, and ethnically different. The fair skinned female, smiling on left signs  &quot;America&quot; with close to red flag stripes weaving around them. The dark skinned female, with mouth shut on the right signs &quot;Slave&quot; with black flag stripes weaving around them. ]]></dcterms:description>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[It is a perspective of how people think of America as whole. When it comes to the patriotic song &quot;America The Beautiful,&quot; the Deaf Community have been signing it the way we were taught and believe that this is our home, a land of the free. But in &quot;BlackDeaf&quot; Community, we questioned it and sign &quot;America&quot; as it it was a land of the slavery. Two images, side by side, are people who has been divided (racial, status, cultural). Privileged one vs. The Oppressed One (the color of the thick curved stripes represent our flag in literal and political ways) . The Beau in the dictionary means Masculine or a female. In that sense, we could not completely say that it is Beautiful...even though it is.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[People have asked us...which do we see ourselves as...Black or Deaf? We as a Black Deaf community have been hidden behind the mask and smile....trying to figure out who we are. At the end, most of us are feeling that we are not just this or that, not a half person...As a whole person, we should be called BlackDeaf.  Not just Black or Deaf...a whole person. The canvas shows two side of the coins with the sign Black on one side and Deaf on the other side. The colors are blending together to show the wholeness of BlackDeaf individual.]]></dcterms:abstract>
