Transforming Radiation Therapy Masks

Wednesday 28 September 10:00 AM

Radiation Oncology Level 2, Room 2A, Olivia Newton-John Cancer Wellness & Research Centre, 145 Studley Rd, Heidelberg Melbourne

Transforming radiation therapy masks used during treatment into beautiful works of art.

The INSIDE/OUT creative workshops provide an opportunity to engage in creativity, learn new skills and explore what your radiation mask means to you.

Masks are a universal art form that evoke power, magic and mystery. Take your treatment 'mask', which may be thought of as an object of stress, or recovery and decorate it, manipulate it and turn it into a powerful message of healing and transformation.

Explore issues related to the outside and aspect that may be suppressed, avoided or undiscovered on the inside.

Learn how art-making and creativity can help you work through difficult feelings and the challenges of physical illness and enhance wellness.
