Abstract

This review examines the aesthetic, social, and political force of access intimacy as it emerges in three performances that took place during the 2019 multidisciplinary festival of disability performance, I Wanna Be With You Everywhere. By examining the access aesthetics present in Kayla Hamilton's Nearly Sighted/unearthting the dark, Jerron Herman's Relative, and performances of Protactile poetry by John Lee Clark and company, I argue that these performances investigate the ways in which access aesthetics fosters access intimacy by creating ways to dwell in disability without centering disability-as-identity.
