As part of Dementia Action Week, we visited Creative Space Community Outreach, to participate in a wonderful community art project promoting mind & brain health ‘Neural Knitworks’!
We created textile neurons that will contribute to an online exhibition, weaving a giant virtual textile neural network.
Neurons are electrically excitable cells of the brain, spinal cord & peripheral nerves. The billions of neurons in your body connect to each other in neural networks. They receive signals from every sense, control movement, create memories and form the neural basis of every thought.
Neural Knitworks are based on the principle that yarn craft, with its mental challenges, social connection & mindfulness, helps keep our brains & minds sharp, engaged & healthy.
