A creative collaboration about the language of me \u2018Mind: You\u2019re Language\u2019 is a creative collaboration between artist Patrick Murphy, writer \/ broadcaster Ian McMillan, researcher \/ Sheffield Flourish Associate Shirin Teifouri and University academic Chris Blackmore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The project is a dialogue about the language of mental health and how this has changed, from the establishment of Sheffield\u2019s Middlewood Mental Hospital in 1872 to the current day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Through a blend of historical research and present-day interviews conducted by Shirin and Chris with members of Sheffield Flourish, Patrick and Ian have created evocative artworks and verse to help trace the shifting language and attitudes toward mental health and illness over 150 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
