Murmurs : the bilingual journal of art and healing

Abstract

Published in collaboration between the University of Ottawa and the Shanghai Jiao Tong University, we hope to open your mind to new artistic perspectives, foreign languages and cultures, and to tease your artistic right hemispheres. Our vision is to expand your own view of medicine and art as two unique worlds that can collide into an expressive harmony. Indulge yourself in the beauteous paintings, savouring the nuances of poems and reliving focal moments through photography and stories. This year’s Murmurs is the first international medical humanities journal proudly showcasing visual and literary pieces created by medical students across Canada and in Shanghai.
