Mind Your Head

My Aching Back, My Tiny Crown Rate the Bug People

For the next fortnight the latest prints from co:lab will be hanging at the Peerie Shop Cafe in Lerwick. For this project we've worked together with local charity Mind Your Head and have each explored the subject of mental health in our own unique way. This has made for a very rich and diverse set of prints. You can see above my contribution - My Aching Back, My Tiny Crown and Rate the Bug People.
All monies made from the sale of these prints go directly to Mind Your Head and we're hoping the work invites debate while further raising the charity's profile.
If you're interesting in buying any of this work you can fill in one of the forms at the Peerie Shop Cafe, speak directly to one of the artists or visit our online Heart Your Head shop over on Etsy. Co:lab will also be launching an Etsy page specifically for this project in the next day or two so watch this space for more details. Each print is an edition of 20, 297mm x 420mm and cost £20 each.
