Rxhibition Inc

Mission: To ameliorate the healing process within chemotherapy areas using art, music, and design.The number of cancer patients in the United States is growing, and chemotherapy is often a crucial part of treatment. The process can unfortunately be long and tedious. Rxhibition's objective is to bring the immersive nature of the art exhibition into chemotherapy treatment areas, creating an out-of-hospital atmosphere where patients can heal in a beautiful and engaging space. We design environments that creatively engage patients and also provide an escape from the traditional hospital atmosphere.While several hospitals possess their own art collections and exhibitions, these are often displayed in public and waiting areas. Rxhibition works in collaboration with host hospitals to curate and design immersive, yet non-intrusive, exhibitions inside patient treatment areas. Chemotherapy rooms are ideally situated to benefit from this program, as they are low-traffic, low-emergency spaces in which patients typically spend several hours undergoing treatment. Rxhibition is designed to transform this time into something positive and productive.This experience however, is not something that we produce on our own. The entire exhibition process is rooted in the collaborations we form and the communities we foster with the hospitals and patients we work with in order to build unique experiences at each site. Thus, working with current hospital programming is an integral component of Rxhibition. For instance, while most hospitals offer art therapy programs, oftentimes many patients do not consider themselves artistic or creative. We endeavor to show that simply engaging with art is an imaginative and cathartic process, and we strive to encourage new participation in creative therapies.Art is truly for everyone and has the unique ability to convey ideas and sentiments that language cannot. Whether internally acknowledging a common frustration or outwardly exclaiming the relief and joy of a milestone, Rxhibition serves as a way for artists, doctors, institutions and patients to express the journey of getting better.
