Their Feelings | Artistic Intervention in Hospitals 2022

The Navarro Youth Institute launched an open call addressed to artists between 18 and 30 years old to create a mural piece at the University Hospital of Navarra. The artistic intervention will materialize in this edition on a wall 3.10m high and 58.60m long in the psychiatry ward of the hospital. The objective is to create a space that humanizes all the people who share it: professionals, patients, family members, friends. The artistic projects will be aimed at helping to manage emotions in hospitals, facilitating the management of emotions, mediating in conflicts, and bringing out serenity in emotionally charged situations that occur in the hospital. The project entitled "Their Feelings" by the artist Diego Blanco Prieto was the one selected to be implemented and the project will reflect the different states of mind of patients, professionals, family members and friends through a single universal language: color. The artist aspires to start a dialogue with the all the beneficiaries and to involve them in the design phase. The Navarro Youth Institute will pay the artist or artists up to €5,650 for the production and execution of the artistic work in the Hospital Center space.
