Round Table Discussion for Artists Working in the Field of (Health) Care

Mapping Embodied Artistry by Nieke Koek

This roundtable explored the role of body, embodiment, and artistic practice within the contexts of culture, health, and care. The session will include short somatic exploration, grounding the discussion in lived, embodied experience rather than abstract theory. The primary aim is to build shared understanding among artists and healthcare professionals collaborating in health and care settings and to identify common values, skills, and methodologies.
