MEDICINE DOLLS PROJECT

healing-heart-talisman.gif (78700 bytes) Medicine Dolls was a three month long, creative research project that explored the healing power of dollmaking.  Twenty women participated in the process of making healing dolls for themselves.  It included journaling and collage, an exploration of feelings through paper dolls; group interaction and sharing of stories; and four healing dolls - Guardian, Scapegoat, Talisman and Inner Healer....and much more.
