Faces of Fortitude is a project that lays a foundation of healing through shared portraits and stories 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.
No, this project is open to anyone who has been touched by suicide in ANY way. Be it suicide loss, suicide attempt, suicidal idiation or mental illness struggles.
Decisions are based on a few things. First of all safety - these sessions are not therapy. M is a photographer and not a therapist. It is imperative for everyone’s safety that applicants have a self care plan in place and some time has passed since your traumatic event, as the sessions can oftentimes get very emotional. Approval is also based on project curation, to be sure everyone feels seen and represented.
