Bodies of Work: Art & Healing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

at the Sun Valley Museum of Art in Ketchum, Idaho, USA
12 January-23 March 2024<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

“Bodies of Work: Art & Healing” is a group exhibition featuring artwork by six contemporary artists who used their artistic practice as a way of exploring and processing their own experience of medical illness and the experiences of others. Working in a range of media and from widely varying points of view and experiences, these artists have made art as part of their own healing and to enable the healing of others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The arts have long served as powerful medicine for both mind and body. At the beginning of the 20th century, tuberculosis patients at sanatoria often participated in structured arts and crafts programs. Wounded soldiers recuperating during World War II were taught \u201clap crafts,\u201d such as beading and embroidery, as part of their medical therapy. Many artists have made their practices an essential part of their personal healing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Artists included in this exhibition are Dylan Mortimer, Estelle L. Roberge, Katherine Shaughnessy, Katherine Sherwood, Ren\u00e9e Stout, and Heather Watkins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
