Curated by Angela Thomas, this exhibition explored artistic expression and mental health. Through depictions of deeply personal and collective experiences, it examined the powerful ways in which artists capture vulnerability, resilience, and their search for solace.
Including the work of a diverse range of twentieth century and contemporary artists and their varying perspectives, The Weight of Being showcased how artists have captured the psychological and emotional impact of societal pressures, resilience in the face of adversity, and existential uncertainty.
Work by Chila Singh Burman and Kirsty Latoya were borrowed from the collection for the exhibiton.
