Join us for the launch of FND Stories, a new exhibition from East Lothian based artist <a href="https://www.ajb-art.com/fnd-stories" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Andrew Brooks</a>, which tells the stories of people diagnosed with neurological condition Functional Neurological Disorder (FND), often referred to as the most common condition you’ve never heard of.This multidisciplinary exhibition is based on interviews with six people from around the UK who live with FND, along with contributions from over 90 people diagnosed with the condition around the world. Andrew&#x27;s work has been created using data analysis from the interviews and contributions in a range of media including silent video, text-based art and large-scale ink and gold leaf pieces. FND Stories aims to raise awareness of the condition and highlight the lived experiences of those diagnosed. FND Stories will be shown on Inspace Gallery&#x27;s City Screen from the 7th to 22nd of June, with additional work and films exhibited internally in Inspace from the 23rd to 26th June.Come along to the opening night of FND Stories to hear from Andrew and some of the contributors that made the exhibition possible, and view the exhibition in its entirety for the first time.FND Stories is funded by <a href="https://creativeinformatics.org/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Creative Informatics</a> as part of their Connected Innovators funding stream.
