Can Art Heal When Words Fail? Tomer Peretz’s Transformative Model for Trauma Survivors.
Manage episode 493035127 series 2975232
Paint What You Can’t Say. Israeli artist Tomer Peretz, based in Los Angeles, is proving that art is a powerful tool to process trauma, reclaim your voice, and transform pain into strength.
Through his groundbreaking Eight Project, Tomer helps survivors express what words can’t. After the October 7th attacks, he turned art into a lifeline for survivors to channel their experiences and start healing.
In this episode, hear stories like Noam’s — a young woman who survived the Nova festival massacre by hiding in a dumpster, and found her voice again through Tomer’s program, finally painting after over a year of deep depression.
Even more powerful? The art goes up on the walls of the Museum of Tolerance in LA, where it’s seen by thousands of school kids who learn about Israel and the power of being open-minded.
Tomer’s healing model isn’t just for survivors of mass trauma — it can inspire anyone searching for a new way to heal and transform their pain into something meaningful.
