Invisible Wounds
Invisible Wounds Project is a collaborative remediation between mixed media artist and art therapist Dafna Rehavia and David Hanauer, a poet, autoethnographer, and journaler. Merging their respective artistic disciplines, bodily sensations and semi-consciousness memories are ingrained in each process pursued.
The artists define “An invisible wound as a silent echo of pain, a hidden scar etched deep within the body. It is an unseen bruise and a quiet ache that lingers in the shadow of the mind. These wounds shape our stories as they whisper from generation to generation. They are the silent battles we fight, the unspoken sorrows we feel, the unseen challenges we carry with us.”
