We are happy and proud that the little hearts of the children and the hearts of those who care about their health have been able to dive into the world of art together with the world-famous Israeli artist Hanoch Piven.
Together with the Embassy of Israel in Ukraine, we have created a project called “The Art of Health”. It consists of a series of workshops for children, health professionals, and hospital teachers. Hanoch teaches through art about the creative process of getting to know yourself, finding internal resources for action and battle, receiving positive emotions, and provides tools for overcoming psychological crises.
The National Specialized Children’s Hospital “Okhmatdyt” held 6 workshops and the Bashek’s Children’s Hospital in Zhytomyr and Zhytomyr Art Center for Children and Youth held 2. The process of creating self-portraits was really engaging for all the participants and gave them a lot of positive emotions. The hospital psychologists took note of the artist’s methods for future therapeutic sessions.
Hanoch Piven is an award-winning illustrator, educator, and experienced initiator of creative projects. Piven’s works are unique in both form and method. By giving new meaning to everyday objects and using them in an unusual way, he teaches us to create new associations and use them to communicate with others. It helps people deal with anxiety, explore, and visualize their understanding of values and emotions.
Since 1992 Piven’s artworks have been published in well-known publications around the world, such as Time, Newsweek, Rolling Stone, London Times, Der Spiegel, and the Israeli Haaretz. Piven is the author of a series of children’s books and interactive applications, television shows, interactive exhibitions, and advertising campaigns which have received a multitude of awards.
All activities were carried out in compliance with quarantine restrictions.
