Minna says:  I painted this to represent my thoughts and feelings whilst I was going through a dark patch of depression and had been admitted to a psychiatric hospital. I remember feeling lost, alone, scared and hopeless, like I was on a different planet to everyone and everything else. I felt like I was watching the world going by from afar – a world that was unfamiliar and foreign to me, with people I did not recognise and places I had never been to before. I could see the different colours and nebulous shapes of life and objects, all moving around and being sucked into a black hole of hopelessness. I remember feeling like I was standing on the edge of an obscure planet, unsure of where I was, what I was seeing and what I was supposed to do.
