“Schizophrenia patients often find it hard to differentiate between reality and what they perceive as real, leading to psychotic breakdowns, intrusive voices in their head and hallucinations that get them labeled and dismissed as just crazy. However, with modern science, it is now a condition that is treatable and manageable provided that the patient has a strong support system. In the center of this artwork is a brain MRI of a person with schizophrenia.”
