Precious Burden – Helmet

by Asefeh Taybani

Having a neurological disorder is challenging. To cope with it in daily life can be tough. How easy or hard the life of someone with a mental disorder is, depends largely on other people's understanding of the disorder. Autistic designer Asefeh Taybani created three objects that allow the public to experience a little how it is to be autistic. She strongly believes that being seen and feeling that you matter will empower her as well as other people with mental disorders – making them feel safe enough to come out with their afflictions. 

To experience this work, you are welcome to join the Open Tour on Fridays at 16:00.
