Phase 1. Research. 2014.
Our process began in 2014 with a series of Madlove workshop in England and mainland Europe, supported by Unlimited. These workshops brought together a range of people with and without experiences of mental health to consider questions like:
‘What does good mental health care feel like?’
and
‘What does good mental health look, taste, sound, touch and feel like to touch?’
You can read about the workshops here.
Workshops happened at Southbank Centre (London), Fierce Festival (Birmingham), Nottingham Contemporary, NAGAS (Newcastle), FACT (Liverpool), Riga Mental Health Hospital (with Homo Novus), The Prague Quadrennial, Gessnerallee (Zurich).
