Transending Addiction




"Changing the environment/living quarters of an individual with addiction"
I chose this image from the magazine telling a personal story of this individuals struggle with addiction.  It is a very dark outline of a human standing in a condemned room and thought: "what if art and natural calming murals can change this person's battle with addiction?"  I remixed the image with hand painted murals of trees in the forest on the walls and represented the dark floor with natural stone.  I thought  that bringing in these elements of nature will help aid this individuals recovery.  I think changing a person's everyday look/interior can help enlighten mood and positive progress with someone battling inner thoughts and illness.  I hope that this thought can be used not just in homes but in hospitals and out patient settings as well.
