Gateway

A bird flies slightly lower than the others, closer to the observer. Its presence becomes a gateway for the observer to emotionally connect. This bird serves as a recipient of the scenery and eventually becomes a guide for the viewer.

Emotional Therapy

For Dementia Patients

Emotional therapy for dementia focuses on activating emotional functions, which are relatively preserved even as cognitive functions decline. It utilizes high-quality, benevolent art and cultural content. The aim of this therapy is to enable individuals with dementia to express a wide range of emotions, alleviate distressing behavioral and psychological symptoms (BPSD), and guide them toward "delightful aging" filled with joyful emotions like gratitude and smiles.

Perplexity

Concept of Emotional Therapy for Dementia Patients
Emotional therapy for dementia patients is a care approach that focuses on stimulating and supporting the emotional functions—such as empathy, joy, and sympathy—that are often retained even as cognitive abilities decline with dementia. This concept, developed and advocated by Masahiko Fujii, MD, PhD, and colleagues, shifts the focus from cognitive rehabilitation to emotional well-being, aiming to alleviate behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) and enhance quality of life.
