Intro
In my work, I am raising awareness about sensory needs. It is geared toward adults, who often get overlooked in this area. This has come out of my exploration of my own neurodivergencies and sensory needs. My goal is to help people explore their own needs and give them the resources to fulfill them. My exhibit is set up like a restaurant but provides sensory nourishment, rather than with food. I have a “menu” and “training manual” to show you how to take care of your and others’ sensory needs. It also includes a station showing how to build your own sensory kit to keep around. My goal with this exhibit is to give people the tools they need to take care of themselves and to be more aware of others when it comes to sensory needs.
