The Sunflower Project Exhibition coordinated by Sole Purpose Productions is the culmination of work with people impacted by mother and baby institutions, using the arts to explore their experiences and to provide a safe and friendly space where difficult experiences can be explored through discussion and creative techniques.
The sessions were facilitated by Shauna Kelpie, an experienced theatre practitioner and Colette Ramsay, a researcher experienced in working with mental health and well-being with a trauma informed approach. The artist facilitator was Brónagh Corr, who creates participative and public artworks, as well as photography, print and painting.
The exhibition is the culmination of nearly two years of the group working together through art and drama to explore, connect with others, share their experiences and support their healing.
This project is supported by the Ideas Fund which is delivered by the British Science Association and funded by Wellcome. Sole Purpose is core-funded by the Arts Council of Northern Ireland.
