Art can provide a deeper understanding of the lived experience of mental health and substance use issues – both for artists themselves and for the viewer. This exhibition aims to step beyond limiting societal perceptions of artists with lived experience of these issues by presenting a curated selection of artworks reflecting narratives that are often left out, misrepresented, or misunderstood.

Participating artists include: Katie Cummings, Christine Delay, Carrie Hill, Mina Mitic, Clare Palmer, Bart Vulliamy, and Aileen Yadokoro. Exhibition co-curated by Yuri Arajs and Seema Shah.
