Finally, the patients get flowers

No matter how sane you tell yourself you are, when the door closes behind you as a visitor on the psychiatric ward, you feel a shudder. These are sterile, hard-edged environments. Nice to see this art project by Anna Schuleit at the closing Massachusetts Mental Health Center, one of the old school hospitals. Schuleit covered the facility in fresh flowers because flowers were off-limits when it was a functioning facility. 28,000 plants for 28,000 estimated patients for the 91 years of operation.
