Memories of Mountains
and other journeys’
by Christine Erica Bainbridge
28th April-30th June 2006
Mary Smith & the Who Cares? Project
With an Open Mind Exhibition
Mary’s work looks at the interplay between our emotional
states and the external “real” world. Through using textured
canvases and paint, she creates a visual experience, which seeks
to challenge perceptions of “solid” and “real”.
The project enables Mary to support both fellow service users,
Mental Health Professionals and Mind workers to create
their own work.
