Shanina Dionna: Embryo IX
An annual art testimonial by Shanina Dionna, Embryo helps encourage honest dialogue, civic engagement and solution-based art modalities concerning mental health and wellness. The visual and performing arts (acrylic portraits, improv and movement, live music performance, an intentional playlist and botanical therapy contributions) help communicate relief efforts on the stigma and taboo plaguing our communities.
Since 2011, the Embryo exhibition series has chronicled the life of Shanina Dionna, a millennial of color, as she exposes and learns from her own mental health and wellness journey. This work is an offering to her community, an invitation to her extended 鈥渟afe space鈥 and an opportunity to address personal behavioral health issues. Guests are educated on the state of mental and behavioral health via partnerships with local wellness communities, including a growing relationship with the Department of Behavioral Health & Intellectual disAbility Services of Philadelphia, PA
