An Open Discussion About Art and Mental Health

Does Pain + Art = Greatness?

Artists are masochists. We revel in the beauty of pain more than any other profession in the world. It’s an experience we create for our viewers that is almost palpable. And it is in this experience that we connect to each other, creating everlasting bonds with our audience.

Some of the world’s greatest artists have documented their own struggles with mental health. From depression and anxiety to a wide range of psychological disorders, these are all real themes that will always remain in art.
