Oblique Strategies

I practised this technique to try and help my think of other words or phrases that could inspire me for my project. I decided to ask someone slightly younger than me to get an idea of what they think in comparison to myself. I wrote out six sentences that I feel relate to some of the symptoms of diabetes. I then gave her 3 seconds for each one to draw and write the first words that came to mind. As expected they were all quite literal in relation to the phrases I wrote. For example, the phrase 'I am so dehydrated' was represented by a drink, as well as "Ouch, I just pricked myself!" represented with a needle and a hand.
