Art against darkness: How Kai Pleschke gives hope with painting

The 26-year-old Kai Pleschke turns his serious experiences with depression into art! During a five -month stay in the clinic, he painted almost 400 pictures, starting with dark tones that were always more colorful in the course of his therapy. "I used three colors at the beginning, but the better I was, the more colors were added," says Pleschke. Today, almost a year after his treatment, he opens his second exhibition at Café Luv in Stuttgart-Bad Cannstatt, a place that symbolizes hope and new beginning.

pleschke wants to encourage others and shows that mental health is no longer a taboo subject. "I want to encourage others," he emphasizes. His works can also be found on his Instagram account. Interested parties can contact him by email to learn more about his pictures or to exhibit them. More information about Pleschkes impressive journey and his works of art are here .
