NO Parking



At a recent, staff in-service day at a local developmental service agency, Larry had the opportunity to show some of his artwork. He was asked about the significance of the printed out words, “NO PARKING”, that are seen in a number of his paintings. Here was his response:
“Parking is a place to put your car in. Sometimes use of that place is not allowed. Looking at those words propels you to times in your life when you might not be allowed some place and for me, that has happened a lot. Losing parking isn’t a physical thing but an emotional isolation, more because of your perceived differences than your real commonalities with others so walk out of parking lot here and make spaces in your communities to let the people you are supporting aspire to the good life.”
