The MAdness & ME: Art from the edges of addiction
Explore the transformative power of art through the eyes of 15 international artists whose lives have been deeply influenced by alcohol and substance use disorders. This inaugural exhibition at the Museum of Addiction and Recovery showcases deeply personal artworks and statements that navigate the complexities of addiction, recovery, and the role of creativity in healing.
Each piece in "The Madness & Me" offers a raw and intimate portrayal of the artists' journeys—capturing moments of struggle, resilience, and ultimate redemption. From vivid paintings to evocative sculptures, these artworks transcend boundaries, inviting viewers to contemplate the human experience of addiction with empathy and understanding.
Join us in honoring the courage and creativity of these artists as we embark on a journey of introspection and healing. Together, we challenge stigmas and foster a deeper understanding of addiction and recovery through art.
