Program description: Facilitated by Dr. Elif Gokcigdem, this interactive dialogue that will take place throughout the two galleries of the Textile Museum. Visiting with the exquisite collection of prayer rugs in the Prayer and Transcendence exhibition that includes historic prayer rugs from Turkiye, as well as Anne Lindberg’s awe-inspiring art installation: What Color is Divine Light?, participants will embark on a collective journey to explore the nature of empathy and meaning through social inquiry and reflection.
Background: We protect what we love. Paying attention to love is essential for us to imagine and create healing solutions to the complex problems of our world. But, where is love? How do we tap into it, and how do we express our love to another? Through art, meaning-making, and empathy we will explore the capacity of our hearts as a threshold between the unseen and the seen, as we each carry the possibility to tap into love as a preexisting, infinite, invisible resource to visibly manifest it in our world through caring and compassionate actions. At the same time we will also notice the diversity of meaning-making around us and how we each prioritize our actions and choices at any given moment. This leaves each one of us with a question, which is also a choice and a responsibility: What can I do, within my limited capacity, now?
Designing for Empathy® framework shaped a syllabus for a 12-week Interaction Design class at The George Washington University’s Corcoran School of the Arts and Design, which took place in Fall 2022. A small group of undergraduate students, all from different departments and different grade levels, who had never collaborated with each other and had not visited their campus museum before, collectively designed an empathy-building experience to create a culture of empathy among GWU students, using The George Washington University Museum and The Textile Museum as a central platform for inspiring connections.
