Battle:Cry an art exhibition that expands understanding of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) through art by Jennie Jewitt-Harris, sound art by Oliver-Jewitt-Harris & Lynn Hamilton's short stories
About
Battle:Cry is a new immersive project that aims to expand the knowledge and understanding of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in a novel, multidimensional way. It moves beyond the fictional stereotypes of combat-related PTSD to address common misperceptions and reflect the wider experience of those affected.
Battle:Cry runs at the Mirror Gallery, South Hill Park, Ringmead, until 3 July.
The exhibition includes extracts from Lynn Hamilton’s short stories exploring the realities of PTSD, together with 'Postcards from My Past', an installation artwork by psychologist and medical doctor Jennie Jewitt-Harris, and Sleepless Dreams, a sound art and video by Oliver Jewitt-Harris that forms a response to the PTSD research and characters depicted in the short stories. In 'Postcards from My Past' Jennie Jewitt-Harris recreates imaginary recurrent memories using collaged war photographs and paint. The sound art/video by Oliver Jewitt-Harris 'Sleepless Dreams' can be seen on youtube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UM1vTrtms4g
