"Cross Your Eyes Keep Them Wide" is a meditative, enlightening portrait of the artists that work at Creativity Explored. The film subtly captures the ebb and flow of life inside the studio, and along the way introduces some of the colorful and inspiring artists that work there. Through their own words they discuss their work, the difficulties they sometimes face in the outside world, and the community they've built through the center.
"Cross Your Eyes" paints a picture of a place where, in many different ways, art changes lives.
This film has been a favorite of the film festival circuits and won best documentary in the Student Academy Awards.
Creativity Explored is a nonprofit multimedia visual arts center for people with developmental disabilities. Our artwork is appreciated and collected by outsider, naïve, self-taught, and folk art lovers from around the world.
