“Sometimes it is the people who no one imagines anything of, who do the things that no one can imagine.
I am passionate about oriental art and philosophies and in my professional content there are almost always elements related to this world.
ART THERAPY IS MY IKIGAI
生き甲斐
This concept goes beyond the simple western translation of "reason for living".
An ikigai is something that is halfway between something we love, for which we have proper skills, with which we sustain ourselves and that gives back something positive for others as well
Who I am
My name is Francesca Basso and I am a Certified Art Therapist:
- Bachelor's Degree at APIART – Bologna
- APIART Register - Italian Professional Association of Arts Therapists n°765
- ČAA Register - Czech Art Therapy Association
My professional training derives from two distinct paths:
On the one hand, the love for the visual arts and art history. Dealing with the phenomenology of content and getting in touch with the most empathetic and human parts of those who make art, but also of those who watch it.
- Master’s degree in art history, "Carlo Bo" University of Urbino
On the other hand, the desire to know more carefully the dynamics of psychological systems and the functioning of emotional and cognitive processes, as well as social. Feeling how a deeper knowledge could be a source of help and communication.
- Master's Degree in Psychology of Organizations and Services, “Niccolò Cusano” University of Rome
ART THERAPY IS AN IDEAL MEETING POINT FOR THESE TWO PATHS AND THE BLUE DROP ART THERAPIES IS MY PLACE AND MY TOOL
