Why did we decide to utilise Art therapy in our project you ask?
What place does Art have in our everyday lives?
I think as an Artist, it is easy to forget why we are making in the first place, is it a form of self expression? A mode of communication when words fail to suffice?
From my own experiences, that desire to make was evident in the periods of my life i needed a distraction or a form of stimulation from a bad day, or a way to avoid boredom. Later on, it became a way for me to communicate experiences people couldn't empathise with....
