In collaboration with Wake Forest University Health Services, the Community Health Alliance for Men’s Health Promotion (CHAMP), and the DAWN Alzheimer’s Research Project, JTR Presents presents a hybrid exhibition as part of the Art for the Heart and Mind event in Greensboro, North Carolina.
Dual Diagnosis: Overlapping Conditions of Care, Identity, and Place examines mental health through the intersecting pressures experienced by Black men. Featuring work by Johan Astratha Eskew, Karrington Gardner, Marion Tisdale IV, and William Paul Thomas, the exhibition brings together four North Carolina–based artists whose practices engage themes of healing, spatial inequity, masculine identity, and cultural stigma.
Through abstraction, portraiture, and spatial inquiry, Dual Diagnosis challenges the notion of mental health as an individual condition, instead framing it as shaped by environment, history, and community. The exhibition invites audiences to reconsider how care, identity, and place overlap to influence well-being and lived experience.
