Mindscapes

Combining diverse perspectives and expertise, the programme – including artist residencies, a documentary, exhibitions and events – will be staged in a number of cities around the world. Our work will culminate in 2022.

Mindscapes brings together culture, communities, policy and research, and is informed and inspired by Wellcome's mental health programme.

  • International artist-in-residence: Cecilie Falkenstrøm
  • Artist in residence at large: Christine Wong Yap

• User-generated documentary: we want to hear from people all over the world on what makes a positive difference to their mental health.

One in four people experience a mental health problem every year but, for decades, treatments have hardly progressed. A holistic scientific, social and cultural approach is needed, now more than ever.

Through a range of cultural activities, Mindscapes will provide new perspectives on how people and communities in different contexts live with and seek solutions to their mental health problems.
