# N O B L A N K B R A I N S 17 The Yogen Früz Brain Project brings together a diverse group of established and emerging artists from around the world to conceptualize and interpret their thoughts, ideas and stories about brain health through their art. Each year, The Yogen Früz Brain Project attracts a talented array of painters, sculptors, musicians, broadcasters, influencers, performance artists and creative thinkers who apply their own unique mediums to blank brain sculptures and transform them into striking and thought-provoking works of art that embody the notion: "no brain deserves to go blank." Every piece is unique and deeply personal to its creator and is intended to ignite a conversation about brain health by the viewing public. On the following pages, each artist articulates the inspiration for their original sculpture and what it means to them. Individually and collectively, these vibrant, provocative and insightful works of art are making an impact on people's perceptions about brain health and raising awareness and funding for the vital work underway at Baycrest to defeat dementia.
