This hand-drawn typographic piece was made in honor of National Suicide Awareness Month in September of 2023. This project has a very special place in my heart. I have experience with mental health and the effects it can have on a person. So I am very proud of its purpose and message.
The most important thing to remember when addressing mental health issues in society is that it is everywhere. More times than not, it only takes one sign for someone to decide to stay. This movement, in order to be effective, must be everywhere. In the most ordinary places, like say, waiting at a crosswalk. Or walking down the road. Near bridges in the city, literally everywhere. My hope is that someone sees these and maybe it gives them a reason.
