Synesthesia

by Rebekah Potter
Exhibition recipient of our 2012 Emerging Artist Award


Synesthesia from the ancient Greek σύν (syn), "together," and αἴσθησις (aisthēsis), "sensation," is a neurological condition in which stimulation of one sensory or cognitive pathway leads to automatic, involuntary experiences in a second sensory or cognitive pathway.

Intention:  To delve into cartography of the human body, environmental landscape and alternative dimensions by way of textiles.
