Description
Summary:Painting your Odyssey focuses on the exploration of using multiple senses to attain a deeper and richer engagement with one’s surroundings. This particular exploration will focus on how the phenomenon of Synesthesia allows people to experience the world differently. The world we live in today is often fast-paced, especially with the presence of social media. Our attention spans are getting shorter and many are often more gravitated towards results rather than patient process. It is hence easy for us to gloss over the many details present in our surroundings that can be experienced as long as we engage with our senses. By engaging in multiple senses, this project hopes that people will also be able to process their everyday thoughts and life experiences through a different lens: one that allows a better understanding of self.
