A thematic journey of awareness

Art Therapy Programme

Starting again from your own story

I designed, structured and facilitated a programme of 20 sessions, integrating a range of artistic languages and working methods: painting, creative writing, photography, video, paired activities, group sharing and breath awareness.

In dialogue with the work carried out by the psychological team, the programme focused on participants’ personal histories, revisiting significant moments in their lives and creating space to reflect on the choices available to them in the present and on a future that had yet to be written.

The programme concluded with an exhibition of the works created over the course of the sessions, which the participants also helped to curate and set up. I also produced a short film to capture and convey, through audiovisual storytelling, some of the feelings and impressions that emerged throughout the experience.
