Addiction and Art

Beschreibung

Stunning and occasionally unsettling, this unique portfolio reveals addiction art as a powerful complement to addiction science. Many pieces are stark representations of life on the edge, and each creation is emblematic of the destructive power of addiction and the regenerative power of recovery.
