Sculptures by the Selective
An Australian event held on beaches, including Cottesloe, WA, where disabled people are only allowed access two days out of fourteen.
Ensuring that the beach matting is only laid out on those days prevents 'visual disruption', according to the organisers, and has other tangible benefits including minimal environmental disruption because it is only open to cripples on weekdays.
Next year the organisation plans to further develop their commitment to exclusivity by targeting and discriminating against other minority groups who may be visually disruptive due to their skin colour, flamboyance or utterly unacceptable forms of clothing that may reflect a person's culture.
In 2019, Sculptures will introduce the 'Sculptures ban the Sarong' campaign so that beachgoers and artists will be less distracted by potentially visually disruptive beachwear.
