I found this article ‘Follow These 20 Photographers to Understand the World’s Most Important Issues’ that shows photographic work from 20 different photographers that focused on highlighting world’s issues such as climate change, racism, war, political matters, poverty, gender, refugees and sexual issues. I also look at the profile on some of these photographers to see more of their work.
For my idea of representing mental health issues, I am not sure yet if I will use paint to symbolise mental health but I wanted to research on the meaning of each colour and the connotation behind it when it comes to mental health.

  • BLUE. Promotes: Calm, peace, relaxation, slowing down, steadying, self-expression, intuition, honesty, truth, creativity. ...
  • INDIGO. Promotes: Wisdom, intuition, understanding, spirituality, peace, calm, inspiration.(https://www.getselfhelp.co.uk/colour.htm)Image result for colour wheel for mental health
