Mental Wellness Meets Street Art
Artists name: Vanessa Power (Signs of Power)
Location: Headford Road & Dyke Road, Galway
Reflecting Ireland’s artistic culture and community, three Irish street artists will be painting murals depicting their artistic interpretation of mental wellbeing in Dublin, Cork and Galway.
This piece by Lettering Artist Vanessa Power aims to encourage people to reach out for help instead of suffering in silence. The bold, positive, mental wellbeing messages out in the streets will reassure people it’s ok to ask for help.
