The trace in the skin in an Art Therapy Workshop

Abstract

We present the experience of a brief Art Therapy Workshop conducted with a group of women with dermatological conditions, conducted at the Hospital General Universitario Reina Sofía of Murcia. We will focus on one of the patients, recognizing the importance of group relationships for therapy. The main objective was to establish a link between emotions and experiences of patients and their own body, specifically their skin condition. Thus, personal, family and social will constitute the basis on which these emotions and experiences are embedded. The relationships and their status as mothers are guides for the therapeutic work carried out.
