Item Description
TITLE OF PIECE: 'A Memory We Have Yet To Make'
INSPIRATION FOR THE PIECE - ARTIST NEUROSCIENTIST MATCH UP:
Tresa Gibson matched with the Branch Out funded project of Cynthia Kahl from the University of Calgary and the Alberta Children's Hospital.
'Magnets for Depression & Tourettes'
When I visited Cynthia at the lab at the lab the first thing that struck me is how the treatment of magnets would help to filter out the busy static of neural synapses and calm the brain. This piece is grounded by the heavy Rich vase that is holding the flowers in place. The flowers represents the clarity of thought opening up as the magnetic impulses calm any static.
