Curating wellness: Exploring healing experiences in digitally transformed museums
This study explores how digital technologies shape museums as spaces of healing, using a qualitative case study of the China Grand Canal Museum. We conducted semi-structured interviews with 27 visitors between July and August 2022 and identified five core dimensions of healing experiences: emotional engagement, sensory immersion, attention recovery, creative inspiration, and educational and cultural enlightenment. We further developed a conceptual framework that consists of four sequential stages that illustrate the digital transformation of museum space for healing experience: digital technology enablers, exhibition transformation, enriched visitor experience, and healing value realization. The findings contribute to understanding how digital technologies enhance museums' therapeutic potential while maintaining cultural authenticity, offering valuable insights for cultural institutions to manage digital transformation effectively.
