Samuel de Champlain Mental Health Tiles Project 2011
In the Spring of 2011 I took part in a project involving over 200 students in grades 5-10 at a local school. The goal of the project was to bring the subject of mental health into discussion among the students focusing on their individual experiences; what they regarded as influencing their positive mental health. The classes has sessions with teachers in which they discussed the topic and began working on images to symbolize what positive mental health meant to them. I then worked with them for 2 sessions each, working on developing the designs and painting the images onto 6" square tiles with acrylic paint. The tiles are to be mounted as a mass permanent installation within the halls of the school.
