"Living with OCD"
Artist Corinne Lightweaver’s new art book, The Psyche's Gifts: Art, Art Making, and the Journey from Mental Illness to Mental Wellness, provides an uncommon window into the lived experience of mental illness. Working from her unconscious, Lightweaver uses techniques of paper collage to access, reveal, and artistically document her journey. Through her work, she hopes to spark personal and public conversations about mental illness, reduce stigma, and encourage those who suffer from it to find treatment.
