Street art with a digital link to HSE-funded mental health supports were unveiled by Irish artists in Cork, Galway and Dublin on Tuesday.

Sullivan’s Quay in Cork city is one of the areas where empty walls and hoardings have been transformed by three artists; ADW, Holly Pereira and Vanessa Power (Signs of Power). 

Each mural has a QR code which anyone with a smartphone can use to learn about the HSE-funded national Guided Digital Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) service, provided by the SilverCloud platform.

Vanessa Power, who uses Signs of Power as her street artist name, said she is “thrilled” to take part.
