Platform 2 was the final event of Conversation for Change, a year long public art project about mental health. In January 2015 a Creative Team of people embarked on a mission to generate as many conversations on the topic of mental health, in as many everyday places and situations in the community of Edinburgh as they could. Throughout the year they spoke to over a thousand people and visited many places, including The Meadows, Edinburgh Central Mosque, Hidden Door Arts Festival, a church coffee morning, Scottish Parliament, Radio Ramadan, the streets of Edinburgh, a telephone box and a few more. You might call their work artistic interventions, experiments or interruptions to your day.
