Co-curators, Carrie Breschi and Maureen Joyce, initiated I’m fine. in 2019 as a way to address the country’s mental health crisis.

I’m fine. consists of a series of workshops developed in communities across Pennsylvania.  In the workshops, participants express their emotions by creating a ceramic mask to represent the mask they wear to overcome, portray or minimize their mental health struggles.  The workshops culminate in each community with a series of public art installations and gallery exhibits.  All installations showcase the masks and the meaningful stories of the participants.  To date, more than 300 masks have been created and more than 20 workshops have been conducted. 

The project made its debut in Carlisle and is currently being conducted in York until May 2022. I’m fine. will continue to engage communities across Pennsylvania until 2024 when it will be shown in the state’s capitol, Harrisburg, bringing everyone together to engage in the mental health conversation.
