ABOUT MENTAL HEALTH<\/em><\/strong>
\nMENTAL HEALTH<\/em> is an arts exhibit that brings together new works by four emerging artists working in tkaronto\/Toronto who take up issues related to mental health in their art practices. Through installation, sculpture, video, performance, and flash art, these artists reflect on what \u201cmental health\u201d means in relation to their own lived experiences. Often using humour, performativity, and play, the artists shake up the discourses and institutions of \u201cmental health\u201d and trouble the binary dividing mental health and mental illness through feminist, queer, non-binary, and BIPOC frameworks. The works in this exhibition are as material as they are conceptual, and engender new perspective on the place of mental health in contemporary art. At once tongue in cheek and sincere, MENTAL HEALTH<\/em> makes space for a nuanced consideration of the intersections between life as a millennial artist and this often all-consuming thing called \u201cmental health.\u201d<\/p>\n

MENTAL HEALTH<\/em> is part of the \u201cIn Space\u201d curatorial events organized by The White House, a thematic series of five exhibitions focusing on the experiences of disenfranchised peoples within social, political and physical spaces. \u201cIn Space\u201d is conceived of by Sandra J. Manilla and co-produced with Nathaniel Addison, Stephanie Avery, and Leone McComas. MENTAL HEALTH is generously sponsored by Toronto Arts Council and the Ontario Arts Council.<\/p>\n
