IT'S LIVE | This World Mental Health Day, we’re celebrating Coco, her creative journey and the power of art to help us express ourselves, connect with others and find our own way forward.

Inspired by Coco’s Raison d’être exhibition and her Seven Deadly Sins series, her artwork is stepping beyond the gallery and into a brand-new collection of wearable art.

✨ Oversized organic cotton T-shirts
✨ Sweatshirts and hoodies
✨ Art prints for your walls

Every design features Coco’s distinctive artwork, bringing her creativity to new audiences in a whole new way.

At the heart of this launch is our ReConnect programme, where adults with lived experience of mental ill health can explore their creativity, develop their artistic practice and connect with others in a welcoming studio environment.

Today feels like the perfect day to celebrate Coco, the journey she has been on, and the incredible artists who make ReConnect what it is.

The collection is LIVE NOW! Shop here: https://project-ability.teemill.com/

Coco's solo exhibition 'Rasion D'etre' is currently on show at Project Ability until the 31st October. It is proudly presented as part of The Scottish Mental Health Arts Festival.
