Publisher's Synopsis

This book shows how art therapists can use found objects in their work with clients.

Found objects can be a highly affordable, imaginative and creative way of working, and are particularly effective when working with marginalised populations and clients who have experienced trauma. This edited collection contains chapters from a wide variety of contributors from around the world and covers a vast array of topics, including the use of found objects in clinical settings, community and art practice, pedagogy and self-care.

This is the ideal resource for any art therapist wishing to explore the use of this non-traditional medium to enrich their practice.
