      El arte de los locos es muy interesante y le ha servido de referencia a muchos artistas famosos. Pero sí, es inquietante.

    I think that many people with mental illness find solace and inspiration in their art, using it to express their thoughts, emotions, and struggles – it can be a powerful tool for processing trauma, grief, and other difficult experiences. Thanks for sharing, and have a good day 🙂 Aiva xx

      Yes, art is therapy, even without it being Art Therapy… The drawings of these severely mentally ill people, basically the criminally insane, is incredible!
