© Daniel Regan
Daniel Regan has a degree in photography from the University of Brighton, an MA in photography form the London College of Communication and runs the website fragmentary.org in which he curates and collates the work of other photographers dealing with the subject of mental health. He also organises events and exhibitions exploring and encouraging debate on the benefits of art for those with experience of mental difficulties.
