Doors of Perception
The collection, called ‘Doors of Perception’, contains examples of vigorous flexing of the imaginal muscle: patients in the foetal position in the waiting room; a visualisation of trigeminal neuralgia; Haikus on depression, the search for hope in extreme adversity; the knot as a metaphor of extreme complexity; imagined conversations between a wife and dying husband; a humorous depiction of living with hemianopia.
