Workshop Coordinator's comments :

"Your presentation, 'Weaving without Boundaries' has contributed to the larger discussion of definitions of disability, impairment and illness as well as to specific discussions about the interplay of arts and (dis)ability. We are pleased you have been able to be part of Engaging Disability 2007."

Participant's comments:

"Saori offers the path of peaceful self expression, a perfect chance to practice following my own heart. I can feel the interconnection of the weaving and life's path."

"I love Saori weaving! Just pick a colour - any colour - and weave. It is wonderful to feel so creative! Thank you for that."

"What a fabulous experience to create such a beautiful weaving with my daughter. It was a wonderful example of how Spirit takes a bit of color here and a mistake there to weave together the fabric of our living."
