In many Asian cultures, the pressures of ‘saving face’ and the stigma surrounding mental health often prevents many in need from seeking help for their mental health struggles, leading them to suffer alone in silence. 

This is an art installation that people can interact with. It aims to build empathy and spark open conversations about one’s mental well-being, which is a crucial step towards dismantling the barriers of shame and stigma against mental health issues. 

Each sculpture is designed to allow one to ‘enter’ into the mind of someone struggling, which challenges perceptions and highlights the shared human experience of mental health challenges. It encourages one to reflect on their mental well-being and empowers them to seek support in their journey through shared conversations of healing and understanding.
