SPOON THEORY<br />

Elizabeth Curry<br />

‘Spoon Theory’ is an exhibition of spoons crafted to abstractly represent some of the<br />

emotions experienced by a person living with an invisible illness, in this case autism.<br />

Based on the concept of Spoon Theory created by Christine Miserandino, each<br />

spoon will be crafted from scratch and represent an emotion felt by a specific<br />

individual, the artist herself.<br />

The aim of the exhibition is to bring awareness to invisible illnesses. It is hoped that it<br />

may help some people either through recognition or understanding and assist in the<br />

breakdown of associated stigmas.<br />
