Mental Health and Art: Glass Arts Society 2022 Conference

Written By James Nole

3:30-5:00pm | MENTAL HEALTH PANEL: Judy Ko, James Nole, Danie Nitardy | GTCC, Ballroom C

Art and Mental Health | Emotion gives us motion, art gives us life.  Suffering and meaning find themselves entangled in the creative process and artistic endeavor.  While many artists suffer from various mental health struggles-- these struggles can often be left out of the discourse and dialogue.  This panel seeks to explore the intersection between mental health issues and art, how they are related, and increase awareness around mental health issues in these spaces.
