Mia was approached by Student Welfare Coordinator Kath Harper to facilitate the creation of a permanent artwork responding to Positive Body Image.

Creating the works in small groups, the students explored the factors effecting a positive self and body image, focusing on The Media, Peers and Healthy Mind Body Soul.
