"Vocational rehabilitation is a term that refers to a process of compelling and enabling people to overcome disability so they can work. This social practice is the starting point for a collaboration between artist Simon Denny and Joanna Fadyl, a PHD candidate at AUT, Auckland whose thesis focuses on this topic. For the joint project Envisaging Vocational Rehabilitation, Denny revisits his artistic interest in topics such as leisure culture, the entertainment industry (video, television) and the aesthetics of an information economy by working with information design. The project consists of a collaborative reorganisation of visual and textual material from Fadyl's analysis of the definition and role of reintegration into employment and society. Exemplary documents originating from New Zealand's social history have been compiled and processed by Denny and designer David Bennewith to form a central brochure from where the diverse parts of the project are accessed."--Artist's Gallery statement.
