Chimna Lionn is a young creative director and a fashion designer with many creative disciplines under her belt. The exhibition features photos from FAM BAM, a photography project which reinvents traditional styles of family portraits, working with young single parents. The photos are symbolic of their story, voice, and message to the world.

Honour and Brenda have facilitated workshops for people to explore what mental illness looks like in wearable objects. The exhibition will feature the objects and photos, expressing how we wear mental illness.

Ines Yearwood-Sanchez will present the culmination of her workshops and collaboration with young people going through transition moments out of education, to explore how that feels and what young people aren’t taught. The exhibition will feature a collage of the creative work from the sessions, which viewers can add to and take away from.
