Igennem samtaler med kvinder, sendiagnosticeret med ADHD, og studier af deres objekter, har Sofie Graabæk Byriel afdækket, hvilke sensoriske oplevelser der kan have en beroligende eller stimulerende effekt. Hun har udforsket effekten ved brug af form, tyngde, afdæmpning af lyd, bevægelse, tekstur og placeringer forskellige steder på kroppen. På den baggrund har hun skabt en serie smykker, der kan styrke fokus og ro uden at stigmatisere sin bærer. Kollektionen har to sider; en med et afdæmpet udtryk, og en med et mere ekspressivt.

Through conversations with women, diagnosed with ADHD, and studies of their objects, Sofie Graabæk Byriel has uncovered which sensory experiences can have a calming or stimulating effect. She has explored the effect using shape, weight, attenuation of sound, movement, texture, and locations in different places on the body. Based on her discoveries, she has created a collection of jewellery that can strengthen focus and calm without stigmatizing the wearer. The collection has two sides: one with a subdued expression, and one with a more expressive one.
