Art Exhibition: Alternative Medicine - Use of Art for Mental Wellness

This multifaceted project comprises professional training, application, and research of art therapy in a community rehabilitation setting.  The art exhibitions highlight the artworks created by the individuals undergoing mental health rehabilitation. The art making process was guided by the participating mental health workers after they have received art therapy training and supervision in the project.

The art products were all created by the individuals with mental health issues. These artworks provide a conduit to peep into the inner world of the artists, reveal how art can instill happiness, empower life, and connect one with others.
