Stories and narratives are right at home in a library. This fall, our collection of stories has grown.
The “Untold Stories Exhibition” showcases portrait photography and audio interviews co-created by patients from the Duke Outpatient Clinic along with Duke clinicians Dr. Jeffrey Lee, resident physician in internal medicine-psychiatry, Katherine Henderson, chaplain, Elissa Nickolopoulas, social worker, and Michelle Tang, medical student.
The exhibit, which opened on August 1st, features six portraits of patients. Hanging next to each photograph is a QR code that connects viewers to audio and transcribed interviews with the person featured in the portrait. These stories honor the richness of each patient’s life experiences and provide opportunities to learn and connect healthcare professionals to patients.
Read more about the project and the patient participants in the School of Medicine’s Magnify publication.
