The Evolution of Self
Art Exhibition by Abigail T-Menson
21-23 September 2023

'Even as we may be in a state of transformation and preparing for the future, there is a humility in looking back and asking ourselves - how did I get here?'

Abigail T Menson presents her first solo exhibition, exhibiting over 40 pieces of art that she has created over the last 10 years. With both Ghanaian and Jamaican descent, she is part of the Black British diasporan community that feels the ties to a strong cultural foundation. This balance influences the way she chooses to express her identity through her art, whilst exploring several themes such as growth, community and love. Over the 3 days, the exhibition will be a period of creative reflection as she showcases her body of work, prompting you to consider the implications in your own life.

The Light In The Darkness
Art Exhibition Illuminates Mental Health Journeys
25 September - 1 October 2023
Private View: Saturday 30 September 7-11pm

In a groundbreaking endeavour to shed light on the pressing issue of mental health, the Solar Collective and Mind Mental Health Charity join hands to present an inspiring art exhibition titled "The light in the darkness." This transformative event aims to bring awareness, empathy, and understanding to the forefront, by showcasing powerful and poignant works of art that delve into the realm of mental health.

With mental health challenges increasingly affecting lives globally, "The light in the darkness." exhibition emerges as a beacon of hope and insight, collaboratively destigmatising mental health issues, and providing a platform for expression and healing.

Scheduled to run from September 25th to October 1st, 2023, at the Espacio Gallery in London, the exhibition welcomes visitors to immerse themselves in the artistic interpretations that encapsulate the intricate layers of mental health experiences. The gallery's doors will open from 12 pm to 8 pm daily, with a private view and gala night on October 30th from 7 pm to 11 pm.

The Solar Collective, known for its inclusive approach to art, collaborates with Mind Mental Health Charity to present not only their own artistic creations, but also works of art produced by individuals who are part of the Mind support network. This unique synergy showcases how art can serve as a bridge to understanding, empathy, and healing, echoing the practices of visionary artists like Vincent Van Gogh and Edward Munch.

"The light in the darkness." encapsulates the myriad ways in which art can transcend words to convey the depths of human emotions and experiences. Showcasing how art can be harnessed as a means of productive introspection and expression, the exhibition underscores the enduring impact of creative practices on addressing psychological challenges.

Through this immersive experience, attendees will witness the universality and diversity of mental health manifestations, and recognise the strength that comes from sharing these journeys.

The exhibition also serves as a touchpoint, offering direct contact with the Mind Mental Health Charity, an organisation dedicated to providing support to those navigating the complexities of mental health. Join us on this artistic journey that amplifies the voices of the mind and illuminates the path towards understanding, empathy, and healing.
