"From Fragments to Fusion: Uniting Neurodiversity and Artistic Expression"

Artist Statement

Neurodiversity and art are the words, my whole artistic research revolves around. Chunks (with the context of cognitive psychology) allow me to research the various research points (Robert Browning, Neurodiversity, Spatial elements, embedded layers, history) and make them inter-connected. 

To understand my pattern in art and to have a resonating historical reference with it, I started researching the history of Art and ADHD, which led me to the exploration of a wider spectrum: Art and Neurodiversity. While doing this I came across the poetry of Robert Browning, a Victorian Era poet, who himself was a documented ADHD. Reading his work led me to his poem Fra Lippo Lippi. Illustrating the Fra Lippo Lippi could maintain my interest in the same series for the time being, because it gave me embedded layers of interest in words and visuals, jumps in time, jumps in mediums, and self-resonance. Juxtaposing some elements of his poem with some spatial elements, I generated drawings, paintings, and installation.
