Parallel experiences / Paralelní zkušenosti
2011
The international traveling project PARALLEL EXPERIENCES reflects via contemporary art the problem of social exclusion of people suffering from mental disorders.
In general, society knows very little about the topic of mental disorders, with many prevailing myths and views constructing barriers in the way of adequate professional help. Due to this inclination, the mentally ill are often ashamed of their illness and feel stigmatized by it.
The goal of the project PARALLEL EXPERIENCES is to open a dialogue between the community of people with mental disorders, experts and the general public. PARALLEL EXPERIENCES is trying to point out the fact that the problem of social exclusion of this particular group is everyone’s problem.
