Curatorial context
The exhibition 'Enganchados al Arte: Mi techo, mi espacio íntimo, mi hogar' was on display from March 15 to May 6, 2012, presenting about twenty creations. These artworks are the result of a social inclusion project by the Cruz Roja's Open Center, where participants with drug dependency issues reinterpreted the National Museum of Decorative Arts' (MNAD) collections centered on the concept of home, understood as a place for physical and psychological refuge. This initiative is part of the larger 'Enganchados al Arte' project, which focuses on integration and therapeutic support for individuals facing social exclusion due to drug dependency. The project has previously seen works exhibited in various cultural centers across Madrid. The exhibition involved a guided tour of the museum's permanent collection, creative workshops, and active participation in the exhibition setup, aiming to provide a platform for artistic expression as a means of inclusion, growth, and well-being. The art therapy workshop specifically used artistic expression through various plastic arts techniques to help participants explore emotions, self-knowledge, and conflict resolution, fostering their communication skills, self-esteem, and quality of life.
