Mind: You’re Language explores the language of mental health and how this has changed from the establishment of Sheffield’s Middlewood Hospital in 1872 to the current day. For this illustrated event, artist Patrick Murphy uses evocative artwork and poet Ian McMillan performs verse to help trace the shifting language and attitudes toward mental health and illness over 150 years.

Mind: You’re Language is a unique collaboration between artist Patrick Murphy, poet Ian McMillan, Dr Chris Blackmore and Shirin Teifouri.
