How awesome is this installation?! Confronting mental issues and the ‘stigma’ behind it by talking to a therapist – through texting – in a transparent setting, literally!
A young woman sits alone in a wooden armchair, in a transparent, inflatable igloo-shaped dome at the busy Manhattan intersection of Fifth Avenue and 23rd. She remains focused with an iPad in her hands, temporary oblivious to the city’s iconic sirens, cabs and pigeons flying by, and the people who stop to look and take snapshots with their smartphones. Little do those people realize that the woman is actually in the middle of a therapy session, texting with the Talkspace app, which offers digital, real-time mental health support from licensed therapists.
