Selected for the exhibition by the Planning Group. Artist Jessie Ramage used her art to speak on her experiences as an inpatient at the Royal Edinburgh Hospital.
We see that 200 years ago Jessie was using her art as a way to try have her voice heard. This is in some ways echoes the aims of Out of Sight Out of Mind.
