Will have to go and see for myself
I am very interested in the Synesthesia exhibition and plan to take it in. I will be going with guarded optimism however because the link http://paintedbride.org/first-friday-synesthesia/ makes me think of what a rave or LSD experience might be like rather than anything to do with synesthesia.
"Guest curator Anabelle Rodriguez brings together a kaleidoscopic array of local and national artists who consider the scientific phenomenon of synesthesia, the blending of the senses."
The description above coupled with the posted pieces from the exhibit make me wonder:
1) if all of the displayed works are simply "considerations" based on research/observations by non-synesthete artists -or- if any of the artists are actually synesthetes of one type or another.
2) what does the Synesthesia exhibition intend for its message about synesthesia.
The photos (those posted - I haven't been to the exhibition yet) appear to represent synesthesia as a distortion of reality, as if one were having a frenetic mind-bending experience, were afflicted and in a psychiatric crisis or were in an altered psychological state. As a synesthete I can say that would be all too shortsighted and very much a disappointment. Synesthesia is by and large misunderstood by our culture and I hope that this exhibition helps to curb that error rather than further it or manufacture new misinterpretations.
