About the artworks
1) The artist, Jannzel, took inspiration from Enoch Li’s (founder of Bearapy) struggle with mental health, showcasing the pivotal role her teddy bear played during her challenging times. The first frame depicts Enoch in a gloomy setting, emphasising her isolation with only her bear in the falling snow. The second frame brightens as Enoch's journey towards happiness with her bear unfolds, animated with closing eyes, a widening smile, and swaying flowers. The third frame signifies empowerment, portraying Enoch on a tree branch with her bear, symbolising her triumph over adversity and the discovery of happiness.

2) Yu Hui's artwork symbolises the emotional struggles of a depressed person by using broken glass shards that gradually piece back together to represent his journey of healing. The colour blue depicts sadness, while the evolving 'brain arm' signifies a transition to power and strength. The green background represents the person emerging from depression through expressive journaling, leading to a brighter inner state depicted by the appearance of the sun and the clouds, symbolising positivity and optimism.

3) Brendan's artwork depicts a girl in a dark snowy forest, initially alone in despair. As the TV screen illuminates, a paradise emerges, symbolised by growing grass and flowers. The girl, touched by supportive online messages, experiences a transformative journey. The scene transitions from darkness to a joyful gathering with friends from the online community with heartfelt messages.

4) Amber's artwork explores the theme of space, symbolising life's boundless possibilities. In this celestial journey, the human and the rocket represent one navigating life's obstacles, with planets signifying detours and challenges. Embracing these challenges allows self-discovery and our responses define breakthroughs, shaping our strengths and weaknesses. Overcoming obstacles not only builds resilience but also reinforces the belief that we are truly destined for more in life. Each setback becomes a stepping stone towards our next significant achievement, making the journey and growth integral parts of our existence.

5) Titled "The Warmth Of Support”, Jia Min's artwork addresses youths struggling with depression, depicting a young boy seeking emotional support from his friends and family. It illustrates the boy’s transformation from sadness to joy, peace and love, emphasising his growth as denoted by the motifs of leaves. The expressive shirt represents a spectrum of emotions and her colouring style ensures easy understanding.

6) Samuel's design concept centres around an individual breaking free from his psychological difficulties, as depicted by the broken ropes. This signifies liberation from depression and represents the first step towards recovery. Samuel hopes to remind those struggling with similar mental health issues that freedom from depression is possible. He wishes for his artwork to serve as a beacon of hope and to encourage those facing challenges to seek help and not give up on themselves.

7) Cheryl Anne’s design concept utilises the motifs of orchids, known for their strength and resilience, to draw a parallel with the tenacity of youths who are dealing with mental health issues. The collective beauty of these orchids reflects her hope for greater community awareness and understanding of such issues in society.
