THE PROJECT IN DETAIL
Objectives
Enable young participants to overcome barriers and defensive obstacles that can be enclosed in verbal therapies through the graphic gesture; to contact and express emotions and feelings of which they are not yet fully aware, activating mind-body connections
Encourage the discovery of the ‘beauty’ of emerging parts of oneself through the ‘beauty’ of artistic productions
Beneficiairies
Young people with eating disorders followed by the Regina Margherita Hospital’s Child Neuropsychiatry and involved in the CasaOz activities in Turin and about 20 adolescents with eating and nutrition disorders (DAN), anxiety disorders, social withdrawal and school refusal in care at the CasaOz Socio-Rehabilitation Day Centre.
Activities
The project, which is aimed at young adolescents with Eating Disorder (DCA) followed by the Regina Margherita Hospital in Turin and adolescents with eating and nutrition disorders (DAN), anxiety disorders, social withdrawal and school refusal being treated at the Socio-Rehabilitation Day Centre, invests in visual art as a promoter of wellbeing and as an effective integrative tool in the prevention and treatment programmers for these disorders.
The project includes a weekly art-therapy workshop, in which the young people will be given the opportunity to access their emotions through art, to recognize them and to develop, through the creative process, a greater awareness of themselves and their bodies; in which art by integrating the word with the motor-sense dimension makes it possible to overcome the mind-body dichotomy and at the same time has a role as social therapy, leading each participant to rediscover his or her own creative potential in lived experience, free from judgement. Creativity, in fact, allows personal resources, already present but not yet explored, to be brought to light.
