Art for the Healthy Spirit

 
 
 

Almost 150 years ago, Florence Nightingale wrote:


“The effect on sickness of beautiful objects, of variety of objects and especially of brilliancy of color is hardly at all appreciated. People say the effect is only on the mind. It is no such thing. The effect is on the body, too. Little as we know about the way in which we are affected by form, by color and light, we do know this, they have an actual physical effect.

Variety of form and brilliancy of color in the objects presented to patients are actual means of recovery.”  (Florence Nightingale, 1860)


The role of the creative arts and healthy living; an old notion with a new future.  Throughout the world, art is rediscovering its place in the daily lives of everyday people.  Artists of all types are playing a significant role in helping people of all abilities and experiences to rediscover their creative centers.
