Framing the Hammer
FTH Ep. 104 - Finding Their Ikigai, with Art Therapist Yuko
Enjoy this conversation with an art therapist who works with violent criminals. Her nonjudgmental compassion for her patients and artistic process bring insight into the multitude of ways art restores our humanity and helps our self-understanding.
We don’t share her last name or work location for reasons of privacy, particularly to protect her workplace, however we get into some deep topics regarding those she helps on a daily basis.
Originally from Japan, this art therapist has a different perspective of art and cultural expression from many Americans, making this conversation all the more intriguing.
4A Arts believes that arts and culture are basic human rights and powerful tools for building a whole and healthy society.
