Abstrakt: Biomedical art has a role to play in combating low health literacy and negative affect associated with complex and critical issues. The Landscapes Within is an installation that endeavours to draw a viewer into understanding mechanisms of healing and disease by encouraging a positive mindset, or positive affect, opportunities for self-reflection, for decision making, and to motivate positive change. Pleasing aesthetics link to positive affect, which has been shown to promote flexible thinking, comprehension, and conflict resolution.
