Abstract
This digital artwork, titled “Music and Medicine”, explores the role of holistic patient care as well as the important role of music as a therapeutic tool. Patients often seek connection and belonging during illness, and music serves as a powerful tool in healing. The important role of music in minimizing anxiety and improving mental wellbeing has been brought to the forefront during the Covid pandemic, given the drastic increases in depression and anxiety levels during this time.
