Dynamic aesthetic emancipation: Transforming trauma care through creative modalities

This paper introduces the innovative practice of Dynamic Aesthetic Emancipation. It aims to enhance trauma care by emphasizing how the transformative potential of integrated arts and nature-based modalities leads to emancipatory changes for individuals that surpass conventional care and counseling methods. The practice utilizes the aesthetic and experiential aspects of creative and natural modalities to bridge the gap between personal healing and social dynamics. We highlight the necessity of approaches that empower clients to actively engage with art and nature, thereby challenging conventional therapeutic roles.
