A World Where There's Only One Set of Footprints

Kevin George, BACP-registered psychotherapist and author of Soccology, reflects on The World of Self: an art exhibition drawn from R.D. Laing's phenomenological writing, installed as eight sequential text panels on a south London school floor. Designed for young people with SEND vulnerabilities, their teachers, and their families, the exhibition asked a single question: what happens when a young person has never been supported to know the world that is entirely their own? A meditation on inner worlds, therapeutic education, and why art reaches places that language cannot.
