Description:
The Deaf Mind explores how Deaf people think, perceive, visualize, and understand the world through a uniquely visual and linguistic perspective. The signs depicted in the painting represent mind, penetrate, visual, and understand. The figure is shown in deep contemplation, reflecting the complexity and richness of Deaf cognition and visual thinking.

This painting was selected for the cover of Introduction to American Deaf Culture by Thomas K. Holcomb, published by Oxford University Press, First Edition, October 2012.
