I've always recognised the impact that mental health has on one's overall well-being. During the global pandemic, we slowly began to normalise the conversations around mental health and freely discuss different coping mechanisms for a positive state of mind during tough times. Destigmatising the idea of talking about mental health and learning about ways to cope, I believe, was a crucial change that needed to take place. When I learnt about Artscape and discovered how they use Expressive Art as a form of therapy, that instantly resonated with me. I was privileged to work with and support them in using Art to foster positive mental wellbeing among individuals with different stories and backgrounds.
