Sometimes a project comes along that really hits home for us. The Popup Studio’s OurSELF exhibit at The Everhart Museum truly speaks to us in how it explores the difficulties of perception and mental illness. The exhibition is open through April 29th, and we can’t recommend it enough.

OurSELF is a site-specific visual exhibition created by Scranton’s Pop Up Studio that seeks to create empathy and open dialogue about mental health through a thoughtful, interactive, art installation. The viewer is taken on a journey through a series of emotional and sensory experiences. Visitors are invited to move through each gallery and allow the installation to challenge their understanding of their environment and their ability to control it.

We were honored to work with the Pop-Up studio to create branding and collateral pieces to help spread the word on their visionary exhibit and mental health awareness in general.

Museum goers can also pay a visit to the lower-level gallery to discover another component to the mental health discussion: HerSELF, the art of Amy Kiser. Amy found her voice as an artist and a survivor through a series of paintings and lithographic prints. Kiser’s work is reflective of powerful and traumatic life experiences which she conveyed through the use of color washes and line work that create overlapping layers onto her subject matter. The result is often haunting. These emotional depictions, most often of women and animals, were a source of power for Kiser and offer us insight into HerSELF.


Check out these powerful interactive experiences before the exhibit concludes its run on Monday, April 29!
