Group 6 Alzheimer- Work in PROGRESS

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.
