Description

How do we talk about mental health among men — and why is it still so difficult? Narvik Art Association invites you to a theme evening about mental health, loneliness and the high suicide statistics among men, in conversation with visual artist and spiritual counselor Nils Jøran Riedl. Through the combination of art, conversation and personal experiences, we focus on themes that many are familiar with, but few speak out about. Based on the current exhibition, “VU Vasken” leads an open conversation about the role of art in the face of life experiences, vulnerability and being seen. Welcome to an important evening with room for reflection, presence and dialogue. Musical performance by Marius Wold The event is supported by Sparebank 68° Nord Narvik
