Today’s featured artist is Cassandra Hoagland with her submission titled “Friendship”.
“PCD is an inherited disorder, meaning that people born with the disease receive a mutated (abnormal) gene from both parents. In PCD, mutations in the genes responsible for building cilia and controlling their function result in cilia that do not work effectively. Dyskinesia, or impaired movement, is the most common ciliary defect seen in PCD. Other defects may lead to not having enough cilia on each airway cell, which can also cause the clinical symptoms seen in PCD.” ~ American Thoracic Society
The PCD Artist Project is a collaborative effort by artist to raise awareness for PCD or primary ciliary dyskinesia and support the PCD Smiles program. Each artist who submitted art work to the project either has PCD or has a PCD family member.
The PCD Artist Project’s 2021 exhibition merchandise ranges from apparel, giftware, home furnishings, and printed products such as posters, prints, wall art, and other items, all created from our exhibition; which can be viewed on PCD Smiles’s website.
