inquiry
inquiring, documenting, developing & bringing
arts interventions to more spaces
we strive to promote arts interventions in various spaces, be it health, education or development. arts interventions have immense potential to enhance quality of life & wellbeing & showcasing these processes helps – build & nurture a community that uses & promotes these practices, extend these interventions to more spaces, widen their scope & application & collectively strengthen our services.
​
we work towards documenting arts & wellbeing practices, collaboratively sharing & creating ideas with lived experience experts & understanding the impact of arts interventions.

in addition to the report, our project created an artistic depiction of the results of the insight analysis. individual & collective narratives have been interwoven with findings emerging from the review of the literature. this serves a dual purpose:
​​
-
promotes social participation of youth with mental health issues & reducing stigma related to mental illness
-
provides engaging, accessible & impactful information for consumption & engagement by the general public.
​
the commission ran from june 2020 to october, 2020.
​
now, we are excited to share our findings with you!
