one must meet oneself
The author of this picture is a woman with the shining eyes. Her heart is full of love ... you see that for yourself. Thus you may be surprised, why did I not name her?
The logical question made the colors of the applique above sparkle with double strength. The world dont doubt in the righteousness of his judgment and call people with psychiatric disorders the fools - scoff at them. The world fleers at oneself by doing thus, but the Modus Vivendi artists meet dark clouds with the palettes full of paints of trust in love.
I heartily invite you to open the heavy door of the hospital for the people with psychiatric disorders and welcome the people there - lets look at oneself and listen to the heart.

people, where are you?
Dark walls of hospital for people with psychiatric disorders hide the hearty welcome to everyone. I am proud to spread these news to you. Modus Vivendi welcomes the world.2007-09-15
Insights of the palette
The picture you see the above was made by Vida. She actively participates in the life of art therapy club Modus Vivendi, and her drawings reflect as her personal outlook towards the beauty of the nature, as the longings of most patients of the hospital for the people with psychiatric disorders.
Art therapy deals not with the surgical treatment, but the affairs of the heart. We may found lots of various drugs in our medicine chest, but no one of them fit to answer what for we live there and now. Lots of various pills may be found in our medicine chest, but there is one universal cure from all possible diseases – that’s your feedbacks. Our outlook on one other (the wholeheartedness of your responses) helps recover from all diseases and enables us rejoicing over the aroma of the flowers which blossom with all possible colors in a sunny fields, but wither in thick shadows of the loneliness.

Is it all that have remained?
Today I have entered the room of the hospital for people with psychiatric disorders. I have noticed strange pictures on the windows. Social worker Stase Ridikiene has said that they were drawn by one of the patience, who has left us already for some years. These pictures were all that remains from formerly so cheerful person.
Was it indeed all that was left by our friend?

the interest was great
International exhibition Watercolor-2006 is traveling around Lithuania. Now it is opened in Plunge. However, how does it relate with art therapy club of the hospital for the people with psychiatric disorders?
Renate Lūšis, the heart of “Modus Vivendi”, is not only the art therapist, but the famous artist and the manager of that show. Thus she provides members of the club with an opportunity to stay in touch with what happens in the world of modern art today.
As football zealots follow their team over the world so "Modus Vivendi" visits art exhibitions. Though that would be beneficial to each of us, but it is of exceptional value to people with mental troubles.
Though all the disabled encounter lots of hardships at integration in social life, but the world looks exceptionally hostile towards the people with the diagnosis of mental disease. They feel themselves as if imprisoned for life, and thus every single trip into the life outside the halls of the hospital becomes the real miracle. Therefore I am deeply convinced that the trips with Renate Lūšis are of much more great importance than just visiting one or other exhibition.
While visiting the exhibitions, Modus Vivendi meets with their destiny brothers in towns the art show is opened. Such way the Watercolor-2006 exhibition becomes the powerful medicine for restoration of trust in people around us and life of it self. Trips of Modus Vivendi should be named not as visits to the art exhibition, but as example of love that is put into action.
Plunge
While looking at the photo below the incredible peace fills the heart. Have a look yourself. It is hard to discern the picture of lace on Rasa’ palm in this shot, but it is impossible not to rejoice at the lively interest of people around
