New Narratives, New Experiences: Donors Behind the Scenes

Museums, as pivotal cultural institutions, play a crucial role in exhibiting and facilitating the exchange of diverse historical and cultural narratives from around the globe. However, the storytelling, display methodologies, and visitor experiences in these spaces are predominantly shaped by Western perspectives. My project critically examines this paradigm by probing into the origins, acquisition, and curation of museum artifacts, and the stories and figures associated with them that remain obscure to the public.

Overall, my project seeks to disrupt the mainstream narratives in museums and, through computational design, provide a more multifaceted and engaging cultural experience. This research not only unveils the hidden stories behind museum collections but also encourages a critical reevaluation of how history and culture are presented in these esteemed institutions.
