Description of Presentation

Art and Mental Health

Living with mental illness is a journey and a process. An emotional and physical roller-coaster that includes and involves loved ones, family and friends. Manitoba based Fabric Artist Cathie Ugrin presents her own experiences as a case study and talks about how the creation of her solo fibre art exhibit Feeling from Without and Within uses art as a release and a means to understanding. Through a slideshow of enticing visuals, poetry, and descriptions of the pieces created for the exhibit, Cathie’s 45-minute presentation will move and inspire you.
