Group 6 Alzheimer- Work in PROGRESS
W O R K I N P R O G R E S S
To help the Client to Remember, we thought about using senses. We want to create a template which includes contours of samples which help the client to remember.
The template is located under the arms. If Light shines behind the Client he will see his own shadow with the projection of the samples.

Mónica Hidalgo | Action drawing (2)
Disease: Schizophrenia
Action: Washing hands
Technique: Drawing + digital design
The drawing express some of the auditory and visual hallucinations that Paula has. Maybe she can not see them, but she feels that someone is always observing her in all the actions she does and sometimes they make comments about her. She never feels totally alone, because these presences are always by her side.
MicroArchitecture - Group 6 - Alzheimer disease
1st PHASE
By this MicroArchitecture we wanted to show the feelings of isolation, disorientation in time and place and cofussion that Alzheimer's patients suffer from. Also, as they usually feel lost, they cannot do everything that they might want to do so they are somehow jailed in a cage with no freedom or control of themselves, always needing somebody to help them.
Isolation: box. / Lack of memories: white empty box
Disorientation in time: lights / Disorientation in place: whiteness inside the empty box
No control: mobile platform / Lack of freedom: cage
Ángela Shepherd, Action in Never Never Land house
Ángela Shepherd - Group 6 - Alzheimer disease
Action : Reading a newspaper at tea time
Technique: Drawing + Photomontage
The inside of the house is white and neutral, as a metaphore of the lack of memories of the alzheimer patient.
Moreover, in the image we can see two people: the alzheimer patient and the person who takes care of him, I wanted to show that at some point in this disease, the sufferer must be always accompanied.
Nevetheless, the disease courses most of the time without pain and the ill person is not awared about his situation- as he can't remember it- .Therefore, we can say they are happy in this innocence and they are normal people as us, that's why I drew the action as if they were two healthy people.
Practical Exercise 2 - Danny Janse
This image 'as the title in the picture says' is about the purity of emotions people with Down Syndrome have. If they're happy, everything is wonderful and they are the happiest people in the world. But on the other side, when they're sad or angry, this will reflect on everything in their surrounding as well. If they're angry, than everything is bad.
You can see this as a negative thing, but i think in this case we need to be more like them, than they need to be like us. If they don't like someone, they won't be kind to this person. And when they like someone, they will let this person know as well. This pureness and being their true selves is someone we "people without down-syndrome" can learn from them. Cause when we don't like someone but we still need their help or something similar, we will pretend to like them and for example laugh to their jokes, even though in your head you don't find it funny at all. Being our true selves is something we can learn for people with down-syndrome.
