Developed through participatory workshops with patients, it explores the significance of the simple postcard in connecting from a distance, making someone’s day, and in making the hospital more human – even if we seem to not be saying very much.

Tomorrow we'll have one of our special mindfulness tours of the collection - a lovely chance to enjoy some time out and take a look at some works at a slower pace. It starts at 1.30pm, and will end with some quiet reflection. nationalgallery.ie/whats-on/…

What a great article. Highlights how 'bringing nature indoors is a recognised industry tool to incorporate health and wellbeing into design and infrastructure' Well worth reading in full. Many of our exhibitions bring the external landscape to a healthcare setting. #artsandhealth
