Cancer Ward 12: art, medical science, literature and life.

Cancer Ward 12: art, medical science, literature and life. J Vis Commun Med. 2018 Mar 25;:1-12 Authors: Saorsa J Abstract Cancer Ward 12 is an ongoing creative project concerned with expressing and articulating, through art, the physical, emotional and social impact of a cancer diagnosis. The first stage of the project was carried out through an artist residency on the general oncology ward, locally known as Ward 12, at Singleton Hospital in Swansea, Wales, in November 2016, and this led to a public exhibition of artwork, launched in Swansea in May 2017. This paper focuses on the methodology and rationale behind the Cancer Ward 12 project, and on the nature of the relation between creative practice and medical science.
