THE VICTORIAN ASYLUMS & MENTAL ILLNESS
Illustrated and designed by Shao Ni
Unpublished
2022



This visual essay is created with a sequence of found images, quotes and my pencil drawings inspired by archive photos from Victorian asylums. The project aims to examine mental hospitals as a system of exclusion and oppression, and public attitudes towards mental illness in previous times.
