THESIS
​
​
My thesis is a speculative design project that looks at anorexia and the journey to recovery through the use of ubiquitous artifacts to reframe the process and testing new routes of enabling understanding and provoking dialog to make family, spouses, partners, friends, and health providers actively participate as assertive sources of support during and beyond recovery.

TINY BITE - CUTLERY SET
The objective is to take a long time to get as little food as possible in every mouthful.
RATION PLATE
The goal of using this plate is to experience tunnel vision, choosing just a portion of the food and blocking the rest.
MAGNETIC PLATE
The magnetic plate is all about control and the lack of it. Anorexia takes control of what to eat and what not to eat. It is not about discipline or choice.
DARK SIDE
TABLECLOTH
It focuses on the external and internal messages surrounding anorexia.
