INSTALLATION

In my mind

National Institute of Design – Exhibition Design

Curated by Deshna Mehta

Venue: CENTRAL LIBRARY, PATTO

Time: 10:30 – 20:00

This installation allowed visitors to ‘enter’ the mind spaces of the neurodevelopmentally different. It featured an informative audio narrative on how different sorts of stimuli affect the minds of individuals with ASD (autism spectrum disorder). A lightbulb at the center fluctuated in a manner that imitated the firing of neurons in an autistic mind, when exposed to stimuli.

The installation was meant to raise awareness about neurodevelopmental disorders and create empathy among audiences of all ages, in order to encourage an attitude of inclusiveness and acceptance towards people with ASD.
