Description

Dementia Painting by Stefan Szczelkun is a thought-provoking exploration of one person's experience with painting through dementia. The book delves into the historical context that led to Joan becoming an artist, as well as her life experiences as a housewife and mother. The author also addresses the issue of working-class artists and the limitations placed on amateur art. The book features numerous full-page colour illustrations of Joan's paintings, showcasing her progression from formal realism to more abstract styles. These images provide a unique insight into the creative process and the impact of dementia on artistic expression.
