I am using some of my own imagery to reflect upon and explore themes related to isolation. This is an essential aspect of the experience of Alzheimer's, because people with dementia do experience feelings of isolation, depression and loss. Despite the gradual diminishment of cognitive capacity, people with Alzheimer's (and related forms of dementia) remain persons first and foremost who retain a sense of themselves within the broad scope of their lived experience.
