Re-defining menstruation is a fictional design workshop, as part of Noa's design thesis. We will be exploring alternative futures of the system surrounding menstruation stigma. By designing new experiences of design scenarios, that breaks stigmatized and delicate areas of menstruation. Through a newly designed experience that will encourage self-reflection and that visualize, and make a deeper understanding tangible, of the complex system of the menstruation taboo.
Noa is a multidisciplinary designer, currently pursuing an MFA in Transdisciplinary Design at Parsons School of Design Strategies. She is passionate about the possibility to design for understanding, connecting the big picture with the tiny details and moments. She seeks to create strategies for actions and belief in designing for human connections.
