Intersectionality

Intersectionality and your lived experiences are vital in understanding your unique neurodistinctions and types of environments that are safe and supportive


  • Brain and sensory differences, and being neurodivergent, are still relatively new terms to understand, you might have relatives and friends who have never heard of these. In your journey in understanding yourself it is important to know how  intersections take shape in your own life

  • The subtle nuances of the environment you exist in can be heightened as a neurodistinct or neurodivergent person

  • These intersections could be between gender, race, class, age and sexuality

At the same time, those maps pretend to show the different ways the Black population inhabits, walks and transforms the sensory experience of the city...

As we strive for inclusivity and a deeper understanding of diverse perspectives.

Where individuals share their unique experiences and insights.

In the digital age, accessing authentic stories and experiences has become more accessible.

Online research, first-person accounts, and social media platforms have become invaluable tools in uncovering diverse perspectives.

-

We believe that personal narratives and experiences hold immense power in shedding light on the complexities and lived realities of individuals, and their intersectional neurodistinctions.

-
To further our mission of inclusivity to celebrate and transform art environments for individuals who experience brain and sensory differences, this research is vital.
