“PALLIATIVE CARE THROUGH ART SERIES: S1
‘Art is not what you see, but what you make others see.’ – Edgar Degas. Let’s talk about an unconventional but potent way of relieving suffering—through Rwandan arts.
Tanguy believes that art is a profound form of palliative care. Through his vibrant strokes, he offers solace to those grappling with life’s most challenging moments. His work provides a visual sanctuary where patients and their families can escape, reflect, and ultimately heal.
His work is not just art; it is therapy, an unspoken conversation that provides comfort at a level words often fail to reach.
So, here’s a thought: Can we integrate art into palliative care? Can we replace the sterile whites of hospitals with the warm hues of a painting? Tanguy Tangishaka believes we can. What about you?
Let’s start a conversation. Share your thoughts and experiences, and let’s paint a new picture of palliative care together.’ ”
