Sasha Campbell, 18, from Barrow, created the piece on her experience of medication during her battle with mental ill health.

The work - which was made with her friend Millie Cooke Wharton - is on display at St Edmundsbury Cathedral in Bury St Edmunds as part of an exhibition to raise money for the Fine Not Fine mental health campaign.

It features 60 artworks, including another by Sasha and Millie, and more than £2,000 has been taken so far.

"Sash opened the exhibition with a few words on how the creative arts - particularly poetry and music - are integral to her mental health and how they are part of her recovery. We had 150 through the door on the night."

All work was donated by artists to support young people's mental health.

The exhibition will run until November 9.
