Serysthesiac is an exhibition by Princeton senior and Practice of Art major Summer Pierson that features a collection of both 2D and 3D works she has made throughout her past two years in the program. The show explores the manifestations of multiple different cognitive and physical abnormalities in creation, deconstruction, and expression. Working with text and storytelling, many of the pieces include narrative about and from her life, written backwards with her non-dominate hand. Her hope is that the show will highlight the unique beauty of atypical creation and non-linear thinking. She also intends to be present in the gallery for most of its open hours, writing about the experience of working and presenting contemporaneously. This final aspect also allows viewers to witness the creation of such art, which she considers more important than the final product.
