Exhibition highlighting Scottish Mental Health Arts Festival 10-27 October 2024

A collective exhibition that is photographically dedicated to portraying the subject of mental health has opened at Skypark, that aims to  encourage anyone struggling with their own mental health to ask for help.

‘Mind the Gap’ is a collective body of work by Ross Samson and Anastazia Hart and each participant has drawn on their personal experiences. The exhibition features images of model Mia Hope Fawsitt, who portrays her personal struggle living with mental health issues and aims to raise awareness of how to ask for support.

The exhibition is  part of  The Scottish Mental Health Arts Festival (SMHAF) Home | Scottish Mental Health Arts Festival (mhfestival.com) that returns from 10 – 27 October 2024, exploring the theme of ‘In/Visible’.

Now in its 18th year, the annual festival is led by the Mental Health Foundation. It takes place across Scotland and covers all art forms. SMHAF aims to provide a platform for everyone to create and share art inspired by mental health and explore how the arts and creativity can support people to live mentally healthier lives.

‘Mind the Gap’ will hold public workshops on Mondays at Skypark at 11am from 16th September and throughout October. For more details and to book, visit the project’s Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/groups/617259562418703).
