'Pandemic':

Online Exhibition 

This year, for BPD Awareness Month (May 2020), we can't run any events in person, but that won't stop us! We are instead launching this online exhibition of artwork created by those with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) during the pandemic...

 

The artists use creative ways to conveys things, beings or strategies that are helping them to cope with having BPD on top of living in lockdown due to a global pandemic!  

 Anyone with BPD (anywhere in the world) is invited to join in with this project! If you'd like to take part, please see the information at the bottom of this page, below the gallery images. Otherwise simply enjoy browsing the art below:
