To commemorate World Mental Health Month, Meta Open Arts commissioned British cut-paper artist Owen Gildersleeve to reimagine how we understand and talk about mental health. Owen's delicate and meticulously constructed paper illustrations take a gentle and empathetic perspective toward the often-invisible struggles that affect our mental health. These 6 illustrations are centered around various themes, including Talk About It, Switching Off, Telling My Story, The Path Twists and Turns, Neurodiversity and Metamorphosis. Each of these represent small, simple actions we can each take to build resilience and eliminate the shame and stigma often associated with mental health struggles.
