Speaking about how the lack of proper mental health and the homeless crisis are one and the same. When individuals with severe mental illnesses are left untreated or maltreated, their chances of living on the streets increase drastically. The call is to compassion and understanding for those who find themselves in these circumstances.

In the tent series, I am addressing the tents and encampments that appear on sidewalks and abandoned lots as temporary shelter for those who feel it is their best option. At best we overlook these sites and at worst we complain or scoff. But what if every time we saw a tent we realized it represents a person with a story that is likely suffering and teetering toward the end of their life?
