Taking care of our personal health and wellbeing is a journey that every single one of us is taking; it is part of everyday life.
Social prescribing on political agendas across the world has affected our experiences of global pandemics, the care system, and an ageing population and now shapes our day-to-day lives. How can art facilitate discussions around our health and wellbeing?
The works below tell the story of our health and wellbeing in different ways. Artworks can offer a space to think, to contemplate and to reflect. How do these artworks relate to your own experiences of health and wellbeing?
