Why is this big green nose hanging in our gallery? Thomas Mader and Christine Sun Kim, the artists behind our exhibition 1880 THAT, are here to explain - and give us a quick lesson in American Sign Language while they're at it.
1880 THAT is free and open at Wellcome Collection until 6 April 2026.

![What is radical acceptance?
For Dr. Grace Spence Green, radical acceptance isnt about overcoming disability – its about embracing everything that comes with it.
As a doctor, disability activist, and now author, Grace draws on active hope – a concept from @mikaelaloachs Its Not That Radical – to question why things have to stay the same and drive meaningful change.
Her book To Exist as I Am: A Doctors Notes on Recovery and Radical Acceptance is out today ✨
Pick up your copy at Wellcome Collections bookshop 📚
[Alt text: Were watching a video of Grace speaking directly to the camera in our Reading Room – a nice, cosy, space with books, lounge chairs and bean bags. She has long brown hair and wears red lipstick, round yellow glasses, and a sweater-vest-shirt combo. She is sitting in her wheel chair with one leg crossed over the opposite knee.]
