Can art save me?

The Leaves of a Victim never more with Steven Wilson

Toonight’s episode deals with the utility of Art Therapy.
I have been involved in Art Therapy and created a significant amount of artwork based on past trauma; specifically the rape and abuse I suffered in 7th grade.
Members of the adult survivor group found some images disturbing. I doubt the works will ever be exhibited. I can’t imagine a gallery willing to take on such a topic in today’s world.
Humans can only take so much before they say enough is enough.
Art therapy sole purpose is healing. But I think I am as healed as I am ever going to be. I don’t feel any different than when I started, but now the past trauma is now visual and reminds me constantly of what happened.
I did create art from negative, but is has made art itself ugly now. I am not saying it is ruined forever, but things feel different with my studio. It almost feels I like am violated and raped all over again.
