Kathryn Cohan Inner Science
This is the text of a talk given as part of the plenary session of the
Bridging
The Gaps conference in September, 1998. This conference is a Rhode Island tradition.
The topic was "Research", and there were lots of fancy speakers speaking very
scientifically on their work.
My work has been different. I've used different methods, and worked in a different sort of
lab.
The images contained within this "essay" are actually the
overheads I used during the talk.
I am no artist. I aspire to be a cartoonist. Odds are probably better that I'll be a fancy
scientist.
It has been pointed out to me that my "childish" artwork may reinforce the idea
that people with mental illness need to be treated like children. That is not my
intention. My intention here, as it was there, is to get you to laugh.
