Meet Stress, Meet You is a installation

that explores the mechanisms, effects, and management of stress.

The work unfolds across multiple monitors and projections, guiding viewers through both the experience and understanding of stress.

​

On the walls of the first room, fast-paced sequences of stress-inducing situations are combined

with intense sound to not only depict stress, but to make it physically and emotionally

perceptible for the audience.

Two additional monitors focus on the processes

that occur in the body and brain under stress,

offering insight into the physiological and neurological responses involved.

A third monitor addresses stress resilience, highlighting a key finding:

only around 20% of individuals exposed to chronic stress develop stress-related illnesses.

The final monitor in the first room explores the factors that contribute to resilience,

emphasizing why some people remain healthy despite prolonged stress.

​

In a seperat room, projected videos presents strategies for coping with stress.

This part of the installation creates a calmer atmosphere, inviting visitors to slow down,

relax, and reflect on their own experiences.

​

Additional content can be accessed via QR codes,

linking to three further videos that examine stress in the workplace, coping strategies, and the fundamental role of the body’s stress response.

Together, the installation connects immersive experience with scientific knowledge,

encouraging both awareness and self-reflection.

Who did I cooperate with for this project?

​​

Prof. Alon Chen is a world leading scientist 

and the President of the Weizmann Institute of Science.

His research focuses on the neurobiology of stress,

particularly the mechanisms by which the brain 

regulates the response to stressful challenges 

and how this response is linked 

to psychiatric disorders.
