JCUH "Healing Arts"

Healing Arts is a project by James Cook University Hospital (JCUH) which aims to promote health, healing and a sense of wellbeing through the arts and the environment. According to research, colour, light, art, texture and even the performing arts can aid patients' recovery by creating an impression on workers and visitors to hospitals.

Artists were commissioned to create works at The James Cook University Hospital based on the theme of Captain Cook, and at the Friarage Hospital in Northallerton using transport.
