The Wellbeing Project is a co-created venture that emphasizes mental health on the individual and collective levels. Since the COVID-19 health pandemic has dramatically disrupted many lives, the organization is coming forward to push its agenda and give artist communities a second chance.
In partnership with design lab Amplifier, The Wellbeing Project has launched a global art and competition campaign. Two types of artworks are comissioned—one is for public health and safety messages to help flatten the curve and the other is for illustrations and symbols to promote mental health during stressful times.
Winning works are announced throughout April on a weekly basis. Each selected artist will receive $1,000 USD and the work will be distributed online and in physical locations.
