What can we learn about love and repair through the development of arts-based programs in a psychiatric institution? What is the role played by art by generating innovative forms of knowledge, engagement, and education? What are the differences and similarities of the Estonian and Portuguese cases integrating arts-based programs in mental healthcare? And what kind of impact can be generated by these programs in patients, participants, the city, and in ourselves?
In this event we will look into particular cases of arts-based projects co-developed in portugal by the PhD researcher Lígia Fernandes (research focused on love and relational systems), and we will watch the film “On being human” by Laura Liventaal, developed during the PLAY(THE)GROUND residency, at Lisbon’s Psychiatric Hospital Center.
We will further foster a roundtable discussion about the role of creative and experimental initiatives in collaboration with psychiatric institutions and their impact in communities, residents and participants, with guest professionals, artists and researchers.
Both the screening and discussion are held in English.
