Making Art in Healthcare Settings - Performing Medicine - Tate Modern 2009

This season of events was part of the Performing Medicine project - created by Clod Ensemble in association with Barts and the London School of Medicine and Dentistry and the Department of Drama at Queen Mary, University of London. Workshops were delivered with Deborah Padfield, Helen Marshall and Rosetta Life. Three artists reflect on their very different experiences of working in healthcare settings through a series of practical exercises. How can we find a visual language for pain? What are the ethical issues at stake when working with patients? How can artists collaborate with medics to improve the experience of being in hospital?
