Art as Medicine by Shaun Mcniff

This book explores the power of art therapy and describes the pioneering work of Shaun McNiff and other leading art therapy practitioners. It explains how, whenever illness is associated with loss of soul, the arts emerge spontaneously as remedies. Art and image work to expand communication and offer insight outside the scope of the reasoning mind. The forms of art therapy explored include interpretation through performance and storytelling, creative collaboration, and dialogue with images, dreams and interplay. The author shows how these techniques can be used to revitalize both psychotherapy and art itself.
