Abstract
Three pieces from the show Pressure Points explore how an interaction with artwork can change perspective. Viewers are offered new ways of seeing and perceiving materials; the use of time, light and observation pique the 5 curiosity and arouse the hippocampus, a section of the brain, thought to be the center of emotion, memory and the autonomic nervous system.
