The artist who created this very moving piece of sculpture in Bristol wished to remain anonymous. I feel it's important to share along with the link from Mind https://www.mind.org.uk/information-support/guides-to-support-and-services/crisis-services/helplines-listening-services/

PS The piece is called "Bear with me" and is by Getting Up To Stuff
This is typical of the way a lot of people are feeling right now. So sad and what a wonderful piece of art. The teddy is sort of saying 'it will be okay, there, there' I love it.

DeleteGreat sculpture and perfect to link to Mind. That is one of the charities we contribute to through work (we have half a dozen we provide regular donations to and encourage the employees here to engage with in volunteer work, fund raising etc).
ReplyDeleteIt's such an important piece. We're still not having enough conversations about mental health yet it affects so many. Arilx
