Murals on Health
Xavier Cortada, has worked with hospitals,
organizations, and diverse groups to create murals, art projects and exhibits addressing
health concerns, see samples below. These efforts serve as a therapeutic
intervention, allowing participants to express themselves, and as a vehicle to
generate public awareness about issues of concern.
