Canada, 2019

This is a photo from a personal project of ours. Both John and I are close to people with severe mental illnesses, and for #BellLetsTalk we decided to do a portrait series. We used double-exposure techniques and coloured key lighting to show the contrasts and highlight the struggles of those with mental illness. There are prints still being shown in the Winnipeg Art Gallery right now, and each ticket sold has proceeds that go towards the rehabilitation of people struggling with schizophrenia.


Feel free to use our images to promote Bell Lets Talk, and use the hashtag!
