This group exhibition will take viewers on a visual journey through mental health, exploring collective pain from an artists’ point of view. The title, PUT IT TO THE FIRE references centuries’ old healing rituals practiced across the globe, where fire is used as a metaphorical cleanser, releasing unwanted energies, mindsets, and attachments in order to create space for new intentions to grow and thrive. The exhibit intends to address multiple aspects of the mental health journey; from pain to healing, and suffering to hope.
