More Than
The aim of the exhibition is to break the silence surrounding mental health topics in order to remove the negative stigma associated with it and to raise awareness of the multiple resources available to those affected. The exhibition takes place mainly in Odegaard, where most students gather during midterms and finals week to study. We aim to achieve this by making mental health problems more relatable to the general public in the wayfinding and student generated story notecards. In addition, panels educate the public on these issues in order to dispel stereotypes and prove that even though people have this disorder, they are more than a label and can still achieve great things.
