ANIMO EXHIBITION COMPANION ANIMALS SCHIZY INc
Animo is a collection of new artworks of beautiful animals which have travelled through life with people experiencing diverse mental health. These animals have given us access to places in our hearts seldom reached by other means.
Each of these works is a loving tribute to the tenacity, courage, gentleness and love, we humans and animals experience – not despite difficult times, but because of.
Thank you to the Animo curation team led by Jac Gelbart and Melbourne City Library for welcoming us and our animals so open heartedly.
Animo Exhibition was a project fully funded by Schizy Inc, a fully lived experience led arts organisation based in Melbourne/on Wurundjeri country.
