Healing Touch
Ambiente Gallerie, Minneapolis, Minnesota:
Touch is perhaps the most important sense in the healing process in relation to the art of chiropractic. We define biometric design as design that addresses human physiology, body and mind. Beauty is not a frivolous phenomenon; an environment either possesses a coherent aesthetic or is simply irrelevant. There is a visceral atmosphere that is the outcome of a dialogue between these stretched fabric rooms (ephemeral and light) and the large open space with its more permanent material composition. Light, translucency, and natural forms provide a sense of mystery while evoking a sensual interaction with the visitors. This environment then engages the whole body.
