Frida Kahlo: Making Her Self Up V&A Museum
In 1954, following her death, Frida Kahlo's possessions were locked away in her home, the Casa Azul (Blue House), in Mexico. Half a century later, her beautiful collection of clothes, jewellery, medicines, make-up and false leg were rediscovered in a cupboard in her bathroom. This is the first time they have been exhibited outside Mexico, so I went to the V&A museum in London to find out more.

To what extent does the Arts Industry offer support to people dealing with mental health problems? Both externally and within the industry?
Mental health is an increasing issue worldwide, amongst both young and older generations. 1 in 4 people in the UK will experience a mental health problem each year. I believe more help is needed for people dealing with mental health issues, especially now it’s becoming an increasing problem for a large portion of our population.
