Constance Van Rolleghem (2023)

Constance Van Rolleghem studied drawing at the Académie Royale des Beaux-Arts in Brussels, where she developed her own art style based on expressionist writings.

She has developed and expanded these ideas in her paintings, drawings and photography to create abstract images that touch on ideas of communication, language, and codified messages. Her work has been exhibited in galleries in New York and Brussels. She just completed a one month artists residency at La Pandilla, in Ibiza, Spain.

Her personal experience as a neurodivergent artist has led her to advocate for people with disabilities and to look more deeply at the act of communication in its most abstract sense. Her advocacy work in this area has given her the opportunity to consult with art institutions to address art education, communication, and assistive technology for people with disabilities.

Her services have been requested by the Metropolitan Museum Access, MOMA Access, and various art and educational institutions that work with the disability community such as; Art in Special Education (ASEC), ARISE Coalition, Extreme Kids and Crew, Dance Fundamentals for the Mark Morris Dance Group. She served as the Chair of the Museum Art Culture Access Consortium from 2018 – 2021, and is a member of the education advisory board for the Rett Clinic at Montefiore Hospital.
