Neural Threads is Evolve Coaching’s premiere exhibition at The Inclusion Center as well as artist Aimee Bungard’s first-ever solo show. Intimate, reflective, and vividly rendered, this body of work journals sensory and self-perception in relation to Bungard’s experience of migraine disease and autism. Via the language of medical imagery, Neural Threads navigates through inquiry and investigation, extending towards care and autonomy.
