The Laboratory showcases artworks, hands – on labs and workshops by teams of mental health service users, the broader public and kids, organised by an artist or organisation in residency. The exhibition presents the whole procedure of the art creation by the team (“work-in-progress” nature). Initially, the professional artists visit Art4more festival and conduct short-term creative workshops with the audience. The artist conceives and brings about a creative topic/ title, under which the members will creatively contribute, so that a final participatory artefact will be produced by all. It’s a kind of creative “assemblage” of many different forms of creative therapy, with a therapeutic and rewarding value.
