Pillows of Unrest

Hon-An Psychiatric Hospital

Taiwan

We have gone international now.  I received an e-mail from Taiwan from the Hon-An Psychiatric Hospital with pictures of a group doing a “Pillows of Unrest” project.  I was so amazed, knowing that obviously our web site is being used in another country.  Below is the e-mail message that came with this pillowcase showcase.

 

 

 

“Hello:  We are a small group of artists who are current psychiatric service receivers in Taiwan.  We enjoyed the Pillow of Unrest project very much, and would like to join you.  Is that OK? Because that will make the project international!!

 

   Our group named "The Art Bird Station"-----because we would like to turn the Cuckoo's Nest into an art bird station.  The art bird project started in2002, but stopped for almost 7 years due to my strong adverse drug effect.  The Project reopened in September, 2009 in Hon-An Psychiatric Hospital.  The workshop went very well and like to make some international connections.  We are now planning an international exhibition and conference next year.  We'll send our art calendar 2011 for you by mail.  Hope you like our other art works too.

 

    Now I will  send our pillowcase  drawings.

                                                                                                        Best regards    YH”

 

 

 

So, for your enlightenment, we are showing the pillowcase art that came with this  e-mail from Taiwan.

We are extremely grateful to YH for sending this artwork along to us and we look forward to a lasting friendship with our friends in Taiwan.

If you would like to e-mail YH at Ho-Nan Hospital, the e-mail address is:

Thank you Grace Hu for the great exhibit.  We are very happy to know that our project is travelling around the world.
