Darzacq is noted for capturing people using their bodies to express freedom in space, but this new series, Act allows for deeper layers of liberation. Act- Meditations on the Disabled Body was a collaborative effort between photographer and subject, and the subjects are each special individuals. Each of the participants is an adult with a mental of physical difference, each lives with conditions like Down's Syndrome or cerebral palsy. For an artist who has allowed for moments of liberation from the normal constrictive confines of life this series opens the bounds of true liberation as it allows us a glimpse into the mind, the spirit, the soul of each of his subjects.
