EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, we see Selwyn Oxley, a pioneering figure in the Deaf community during the 1910s, sitting in his studio at Grange Road in Ealing, County of London, England. Oxley was a renowned Deaf reformer and photographer, whose work significantly impacted the lives of Deaf people during a time when societal attitudes towards Deafness were largely negative. Born in 1879, Oxley lost his hearing as a child, but this did not deter him from pursuing his passions. He became an accomplished photographer, using his craft to document the lives of Deaf people and challenge the stigmatizing stereotypes that prevailed in society. Oxley's photographic work showcased the dignity and capability of Deaf individuals, providing a much-needed counter-narrative to the dominant able-bodied perspective. Moreover, Oxley was a dedicated reformer, advocating for the rights and inclusion of Deaf people in various aspects of society. He was a founding member of the National Association of the Deaf and the British Deaf Association, and he played a crucial role in the establishment of the first Deaf schools in the UK. In this image, Oxley sits confidently in his studio, surrounded by his photographic equipment and portraits of Deaf individuals. His expression is thoughtful, and his gaze is steady, reflecting the determination and resilience that characterized his life and work. The photograph is a poignant reminder of Oxley's significant contributions to the Deaf community and the broader history of disability rights. This photograph, taken in the 1910s, is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the life and work of a remarkable individual who defied societal expectations and made a lasting impact on the lives of Deaf people in the UK.
