Art in Healthcare
Through Artlink Central I have had the opportunity to work with people who have a diagnosis of dementia, using visual art and the creative process to enhance wellbeing, share stories and memories and to aid communication. The images below show some of the artwork created over the past six years in participatory projects I have developed and led with various dementia groups.
