Sign language interpreters are all-time favorites of everyone to work with. They are the perfect and unique blend of inviting personality and supernatural skills. We find only a handful of sign language interpreters, and they exist in minimal numbers. Although they are small in number, the impact of their positive work is far-reaching. Sign language interpreters have a clear approach and work differently, and this difference makes them artists of their kind.
Characteristics That Make Them Different
Well, it isn’t very easy to categorize and classify artists. Sign language interpreters have features that make the artist. Art is a choice and a commitment but never a pastime. The stage size does not define artists, the number of people they work with, and the sophistication of work cannot measure the talent. Art is created only when it is free to give, and everything lies in context. We can view sign language interpretation as a zero-sum game. Sign language interpreters must take ownership of humanity, their flaws, and their mistakes. They should not minimize the details and must embrace the concept that change begins internally.
Due to the scarcity of these characteristics, we can see that only a few interpreters are available. However, they are required more in the community.
Choice Matters
Most sign language interpreters are not artists because of the fact to overcome the inertia of industry perspectives that are short-term. Despite the pace of industry progress, sign language interpreters must have the courage to create art to make a difference.
