We are currently in a world that puts a stigma on mental illness. Simply using the term mental illness leads us to images of Jack Nicholas in "one flew over the cuckoo's nest". But the reality is that mental illness is a far more common condition and does not make those it effects weak, crazy, or broken. The point of this project was to create images that capture what its like to deal with Anxiety, Stress, and Depression. Giving a window for the unfamiliar to understand what its like to deal with these common conditions. It is my hope that these images can lead to a real conversation on mental illness and the stigma it brings on those it affects.
