  • S3E5 - Art and mental health, with Doll
    Nov 1 2024
    How can art be used as a therepeutic tool to navigate types of grief that go beyond death and bereavement?

    This is just one of the questions covered in our conversation with Doll - an artist, who shares their story of using their artistic practice to navigate their mental health experience.

    Discussing their eclectic artistic practices—from sketchbooks to sculpture and crochet—Doll elaborates on how these forms of expression have helped them communicate their inner struggles, and become therepeutic practices in their own right.
