After a year’s planning, a charity group exhibition "REACH FOR THE HEART", hosted by Sin Sin Fine Art beneficial to Art in Hospital, will be launched in May 2009. Featuring artworks by 33 local and international artists, one third of generated profit of these art pieces will be donated to Art in Hospital, a registered charity in Hong Kong, to support its future programming of holistic art workshops to geriatric patients.

We all believe in Art’s inherent healing abilities and its appeal to the spiritual. The creative process involved in artistic self-expression helps patients develop interpersonal skills, reduce stress, increase self-esteem and self-awareness, and achieve insight. The process of art making could bring joy and fulfillment to not only patients, but all those who participated in this charitable act. Sin Sin has over the years been, and will continue working with various charitable organizations, not only to give back to Hong Kong, her hometown, but is also a kind of spiritual therapy for herself.

The endeavours of Art in Hospital have brought hospital art in the limelight and it is now widely recognised and in much greater demand. It is our hope to facilitate the development of hospital art in the future by sharing our experience and encouraging more people and organizations to participate. AIH is deeply grateful for the generous support of Sin Sin Fine Art which designates AIH as the beneficiary of its annual charity art fair.

經過一年的籌備,Sin Sin Fine Art將於2009年5月舉辦一個慈善聯展《心窗》,為《藝術在醫院》籌款。是次展覽將展出33位本地及外地藝術家的作品,所有得益的三分之一將會被捐贈予本地註冊慈善團體《藝術在醫院》。此筆款項將用作經費以籌劃藝術工作坊,提供給需要接受長期治療的年老病人。

我們都深信藝術潛在的治療功能和對靈性的力量。當病者以藝術表達自我的時候,創作的過程能幫助他們建立人際關係、減輕壓力、增加自我形象和自我認知,並達到更深的領會。創作藝術的過程本身亦可以給病者以及所有參與者帶來歡樂和滿足。多年來Sin Sin一直致力聯同慈善組織舉辦活動,不但作為對自己的家--香港的回饋,亦是給自己的一種靈性治療。

經過《藝術在醫院》多年努力,醫院藝術愈發受到社會重視,對醫院藝術的需求亦愈發殷切。在往後的日子,我們期望透過分享經驗,鼓勵更多有心人士及團體,積極推動醫院藝術的發展。《藝術在醫院》深感幸運得到《Sin Sin Fine Art》的熱心支持,可成為其年度慈善賣畫會的受惠機構。
