The goal of the project was to make students aware of how mental state can influence the creation and perception of art. We paid attention to the universality of phenomena of various types of mental disorders. We also introduced the participants to the subject of broadly understood "wellbeing" and "mental health awareness".
During the event, participants had the opportunity to find out more about Tomasz Beksiński and other famous artists who struggled with mental issues. They also had the possibility to take part in a panel discussion with psychologist Katarzyna Kucewicz devoted to the topics of sensitivity in art and life, as well as the differences and similarities between the minds of an artist and a student. Finally, the participants had the chance to take part in competitions in which they could win the biographies of Tomasz Beksiński and tickets to the exhibition of Zdzisław Beksiński.
