Ceramic Wall Installation - Arkansas Children’s Hospital
As an artist-in-residence at Arkansas Children’s Hospital, Ann Owens, along with Hamid Ebrahmifar, work with patients to create murals and installations for hospital waiting rooms, corridors, and treatment rooms. Owens and Ebrahimihar guide, instruct, and assist children in creating the works.
Hospitals around the country continue to recognize the importance of creating a healing environment for patients and families.

The ceramic mural pictured here is a partnership between the Arkansas Arts Center and Arkansas Children’s Hospital.
