Conference

Arts Therapies and Enactivism for Death Education and Palliative Psychology

People are action oriented and their enactments shape the way they experience the world and interact with others. From an enactivist point of view, the cognitive mode of sense-making is enacted through embodied-enactive interactions with the world.

Being engaged with arts puts one into action. Making visual art, music, dance movement, drama, and theater holistically engages individuals across embodied, cognitive, intrapersonal, interpersonal and cultural aspects of the self. Thus, arts provide a means of enactive-embodied expression that enables individuals to make sense of and reshape their experiences and interactions.

These processes can significantly contribute to meaning reconstruction in life experiences connected to death and dying.

In this seminar we invited the participants to reflect upon the relationship between enactivism and creative art therapies and the potential of the arts as enactment of sense making in times of death and dying. The seminar will include presentations on enactivist art interventions in the field of palliative care, death education and bereavement. In addition, the presentations will explore the relationship between creative arts therapies and enactivism in the fields of education and mental health.
