Who we are & why we are

Welcome to the gallery site of Broken Light Collective. We are artists of all levels and abilities who are affected by mental illness. We create and we share our work for the therapeutic benefits to us, as well as others who may be struggling and feeling scared and alone. Together we can move from disconnected to collective.

    I’ve been thinking of how to comment on this photograph. I can’t really… Not as in complimentary words. This little description / take-away is the best I can do. Somehow I think you will understand: I feel how heavy those steel doors weigh. I hear them creaking when a storm is close by. I compulsively peel the red paint. I have my eye open for Hansel & Gretel. I will direct them to a safe path.
