Re-Imagine is the first in a series of four online exhibitions. Each explores young people’s experience of mental health issues. The series showcases artwork by a mix of UK-based and international artists aged 13-25.
About
Young people face growing uncertainty and new pressures. These artworks variously express feelings of depression and anxiety. Some capture the experience of intrusive thoughts.
There is a lot of evidence that creative self-expression can support people’s wellbeing. It improves mood and confidence. It helps people feel valued. Many of the exhibited works attempt to depict a safe place, real or imaginary, a refuge from dark thoughts.
City Arts is presenting this exhibition in partnership with the Institute of Mental Health. Artwork was submitted in response to an open call. It asked for work which responds creatively to the theme of mental health. The artwork was selected by a panel of young people.
The work in this exhibition was submitted in early 2020, before the full gravity of the COVID-19 pandemic had become apparent and before the war in Ukraine.
