This project lays a foundation of healing through captured portraits of those personally affected by attempted or completed suicide, and provides a safe, stigma-free space for mental health to be discussed, and stories of loss and survival to be shared.
Project by: Mariangela Abeo
“I am a photographer. I lost my only brother to suicide. I attempted as a teen. I saw a need for a safe space to talk about it. I have conversations with people who have been touched by suicide in some way; Loss, Survival, First Responder – and during that time I take their portrait, and share the photos and a few of their thoughts.”
