Description:
If You Are Not There, Where Are You?' is trying to find a language for the multisensory experience of absence epilepsy, or: a brief moment of ?not being there?. And if you are not there, where are you?00Through art and science, 'If You Are Not There, Where Are You?' breaks the silence that surrounds absence epilepsy in children and youngsters. Simultaneously, we aim to contribute to the wider discourse about the relationship between reality and imagination.00Children with absence epilepsy are ?gone? for a few seconds, sometimes several hundred times a day. 'If You Are Not There, Where Are You?' gives shape to the worlds where the children and youngsters are during those times.
