Abstract

Towards cultural change: re-imagining mental health through ‘lofty’ art We are amidst a global mental health crisis. To bring about policy and culture change, we must think outside the pillbox. Through an ACE-funded Unlimited commission #MagicCarpet, we argue for 'lofty arts’ in effecting cultural change in mental health.
