Following the research of Lehigh student, Tiana Aldroubi ‘24, this exhibition delves into the patterns present in artworks created by individuals with dementia. Leveraging machine learning and computer vision techniques, Aldroubi analyzed the artistic features of paintings done by individuals both with and without dementia to find correlations and emerging patterns. With this research, Aldroubi hopes to gain insight into the effects of dementia on creativity and investigate how cognitive decline may be depicted in artwork.
