ABOUT THE MELISSA ARTS COLLECTIVE
We are a group of therapeutic arts practitioners who bring together our diverse expertise in developing projects with nature - in particular with plants. Our purpose is to bring the spirit of integrative medicine alive, to stimulate and inspire people in connecting with themselves and nature. We use artistic methods to explore their healing properties, especially in relation to the difficulties of our time. Our work shows this very clearly as it is experience-based; the evidence is in the making. This in turn fosters new insights as well as social, emotional, and spiritual intelligence that ignites new ways of thinking. It helps to develop an expanded worldview in which we experience ourselves as part of nature and sow seeds for creative ways of healthy living.
