PS/Y Projects

PS/Y Projects PS/Y is a research, curating and public engagement group committed to exploring the interface of arts and health sciences.

PS/Y is a research, curating and public engagement group exploring the interface of arts and health sciences. We are passionate about the role that notions of health and illness have been defining features of modernity and continue to play a major role in contemporary society. We are committed to developing interdisciplinary projects and dialogue with artists, arts organisations, academic institutions and communities to interrogate the place of the psyche within contemporary and post modern culture. PS/Y seeks to traverse the boundaries that separate areas of knowledge normally thought to be separate to open up new fields of enquiry. We aim to create new creative insights to engage diverse audiences for an interdisciplinary arts practice that aims to explore the relationship between mind and body in Western culture.
