Throughout history, art has been more than mere aesthetic expression; it has been a transformative process that fosters healing and renews communities.
In particular I have found projects worked on as community murals have been very cathartic and affirming to diversity and acceptance of each other’s unique qualities, be they emotional or psychiatric sensitivities or physical disabilities. Communal healing is truly a kind of therapy our civil systems and governance have undervalued.
Absolutely! They create a space where art becomes both a form of expression and a means of healing. There’s something deeply powerful about people coming together, each contributing their own experiences and perspectives, to create something bigger than themselves. It fosters understanding, connection, and a sense of belonging that is so vital to collective healing.
