For Matthew and Others: Journeys with Schizophrenia, originated with Dinah and Michael Dysart’s desire to honour the creativity that shone through their son Matthew’s often difficult life, and through that of others with schizophrenia of the past and present, whose work and lives enrich us and add to our understanding. Accompanying the exhibitions, conference and performance programs, a unique publication combines writing that is deeply personal as well as clinically visionary, whilst also concentrating on the background, life and achievement of each participant in the exhibitions.
