Hospital Rooms exhibition opening and private view

During the summer of 2022, Hauser & Wirth London will host a major exhibition showcasing the extraordinary work of arts and mental health charity Hospital Rooms.

About Hospital Rooms

The charity Hospital Rooms was founded when a friend of artist Tim A Shaw and curator Niamh White was sectionedunder the Mental Health Act and the NHS inpatient unit she was required to stay in was cold, clinical anddevoid of any sense of imagination or creativity. They aimed to change this.Hospital Rooms envisions a new world where abundant and meaningful creative opportunities are readilyaccessible to people with severe and enduring mental health diagnoses and where mental health hospitalenvironments are inventive cultural spaces offering solace, comfort and dignity.

The Exhibition

The exhibition will share ambitious new artworks by Mark Titchner, Harold Offeh and Michelle Williams Gamaker that have been created in collaboration with people with lived experience of mental healthservices and installed by Queen’s inside mental health hospitals across the UK.We will also be showcasing a new recorded composition created by the National Opera Studio incollaboration with students at the Springfield Hospital Recovery College.

Like there is hope and I can dream of another world is open to the public at Hauser & Wirth London from Friday 19 August to Wednesday 14 September. Free entry.
