From Sensory Room to Living Room
This project is an exploration into how objects, and our interaction with them, can improve our lives. I’m interested in what connects the psychological and biological, and how such interactions with physical objects can influence our own sensory health.
For me it was important to find a thread that links not only disabled people together but those who may consider themselves non-disabled. As an advocate and activist for disabled people’s rights, one of my significant objectives is integration. It was important for me that this project produced objects that would be useful and appealing to a wide range of people both abled and disabled.
My main objective was to find a thread that links us all and helps people come closer together in their understanding of all types of mental and physical health issues. I wanted to create objects that have value in the world above their material one.
