May is the month to celebrate mental well-being. It is recognized as the International Mental Health Month ever since 1949, emphasizing the essential values of self-care, self-understanding, self-acceptance, and personal growth.

Organized by Arts in Action, the “Metamorphosis” Art Exhibition presents a diverse range of artworks, photographs, and captivating poetries, all crafted by young artists to highlight the significance of people taking care of themselves as well as fostering a compassionate outlook towards others. Through their expressive pieces, the artists offer insightful reflections on mental well-being and the challenges individuals face. The word "metamorphosis" holds significant relevance to transformation, symbolizing the journey individuals undergo when navigating their inner worlds and overcoming personal mental health challenges.
