El arte como recurso terapéutico y de inclusión social para paciente psiquiátrico

Abstract

In this text, we find the result of a work carried out through artistic manifestations aimed at people suffering from chronic mental illness, institutionalized in a psychiatric hospital. A brief historical tour is made showing how art has been involved in the individual and in society for purposes other than technical or aesthetic. In a first phase, you will find the application of different areas such as sculpture, painting, theater, dance, music and literature, being part of the rehabilitation processes. Subsequent to this will be exposed, as the results of the previously worked leads to users can be participants in other non-clinical spaces allowing being included socially and culturally. Finally, the results obtained during this process will be evident.
