In the end, a good life is a project in progress; the work itself consists of the processes involved, not striving for completion. Women with disabilities are permitted access to a limited extent in public spaces. In these spaces, it is difficult for them to attain independence or autonomy. In this biennale, 〈Dancing Waist〉 rejects the exhibition of the bodies of the disabled women and demonstrates their voices, bodies and spaces. In the end, a good life is a performance that raises questions on the body and normality, art and specialty.

Discord attempts to illustrate public spaces through diverse conceptual gestures like penetration, invasion, occupation, and picnics. Singleness of heart 2 reinterprets the residences of people with disabilities, the space of independence, and the stage from the perspective of the disabled women.
