Gil). The process has been supported by artistic mediation methodologies that have brought together patients, healthcare professionals and artists to create works of art born from this dialogue between culture and health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The project's name originates from a letter written in 2015 by a patient to the radiotherapy technicians at the Quir\u00f3nsalud Infanta Luisa Hospital, comparing them to \u2018quasars\u2019: <em>celestial bodies that, although they seem distant, emit immense energy. \u201cYou are a quasar on Earth,\u201d he used to say.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Quasars<\/em> It has been developed in the oncology units of the Quir\u00f3nsalud Sagrado Coraz\u00f3n and Quir\u00f3nsalud Infanta Luisa hospitals in Seville. Throughout 2024, 2025, and part of 2026, patients, healthcare staff, and artists have worked together to draw, through art, an emotional geography of cancer: a map where fear, uncertainty, or anger can fit, but also humour, tenderness, or companionship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On 11 June, we will present the works from this process, which will materialise in four creations with different styles:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2014 <strong>Adela God<\/strong> proposes approaching cancer by de-dramatising it, creating a series of 60 illustrations developed alongside patients and healthcare staff which build a unique imagery that allows the illness to be discussed with less solemnity, sometimes through humour and at other times through irony or tenderness.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2014 <strong>Andrea Moran<\/strong> She has worked on a sound documentary created from patient testimonies and in collaboration with oncology medical staff. A documentary that explores this emotional geography and also aims to serve as support for other people undergoing treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2014 <strong>Roc\u00edo Mesa and Jorge Castrillo (Naino)<\/strong> They have developed a short documentary film from a script co-written with cancer patients. The piece captures experiences, but also lists the objects, spaces, and relationships that are part of the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2014 <strong>\u00d3scar Romero<\/strong> A photographic essay born from sessions with patients. Using instant cameras, each patient has constructed their own narrative, which is complemented by portraits taken by Romero of the \u2018quasars\u2019 \u2013 the carers of those suffering from cancer.<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>El pr\u00f3ximo 11 de Junio a las 18h\u00a0 tendr\u00e1 lugar en Caixaforum Sevilla la Inauguraci\u00f3n del proyecto Qu\u00e1sares, en la que se presentar\u00e1n cuatro obras de arte que culminan un [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":4129,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4128","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-diario"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
