I dropped this picture, Spirals, down to the Waterford Healing Arts Trust for their exhibition Passengers starting next Thursday 24th January in the Waterford Regional Hospital.
“The ethos of the Waterford Regional Hospital is enhanced by the deployment of arts in health care. This is not merely about hanging pictures on the walls. It is about a philosophy, dating back thousands of years, which recognised therapeutic and holistic values as being essential to health care.”
It’s an interesting exhibition, of over 20 artists, as the pieces have been chosen by a group mainly composed of members of the hospital’s staff from various departments. The passengers theme reflects the role of visitors, patients and staff as they play their part while in the hospital.
In September I put my original thoughts about Spirals, on the blog and then expanded them a bit on my website’s Spirals page.
