CREATIVE DIALOGUES

Creative Dialogues are artistic exchanges — a way of expressing the experience of illness through art-making, creative writing, poetry, performance, and shared reflection.

• In everyday life, to process and reflect
• In healthcare, to build understanding
• In research, to center lived experience
