Through the thinking caps series, I aim to capture the essence of the diverse
intelligences the hats represent: the creative mind, the synthesizing mind, and
the respectful mind. The hats pay homage to those who have exemplified these
qualities in unique and extraordinary ways. Often under-recognized in
traditional schooling, these minds have not only made great strides for
humanity throughout history, but are expected to be some of the
most relevant and useful thinkers of the future. The diversity in
media I have selected to create the hats is a metaphor for the uniqueness and
originality of each type of mind. My wish is to expand the notion of
intelligence and provoke the viewer to recognize the importance of diversity in
thinking and education.
