After Meditation: Does Every Exhibitions Need to Be Flexible?
In the first semester, my initial idea was to create a meditation center as a place for introspection and reflection on self and society in the midst of a bustling city, serving as an experiential hub.

Food, Texture, Aesthetics
Two artists from the Netherlands have given my project a lot of thought. How food, texture and aesthetics should be reflected in the design of a space. Lernert & Sander were asked by De Volkskrant to make a photograph for their documentary photography special, with the theme Food. They transformed unprocessed food into perfect cubes […]

https://blogs.ed.ac.uk/carmenhesketh/2022/03/30/component-1-5-part-5-art-in-mind-week/

The Death of Margaret Burges (1579 – 1629), also known as Lady Dalyell
The Great Scottish Witch hunt of 1597 was one of four witch purges that took place in Scotland.
