Healing Arts

The Munroe-Meyer Institute is a place for healing.

Not only physically, but also emotionally – for our patients, clients and families. In the institute's holistic approach to healing, the importance of art is not underestimated.

Let Your Spirit Soar

Our new facility and the artwork within was created with this in mind. Each piece was created and chosen purposefully and carefully to achieve a sense of welcome, comfort, inclusion and belonging. These artworks remind our patients, families, visitors and providers alike that we all share a common set of values, and art is a way to come together to celebrate humanity.

Kinetic Sculptures

Washington-based artist Anthony Howe has mesmerized viewers for nearly a decade with towering kinetic sculptures that twist and turn with hypnotic motion. Weighing hundreds of pounds, the hefty artworks are activated with even the slightest breeze and resemble otherworldly organisms, four-legged creatures and mechanisms as they coil in the wind.

Characterized by an aesthetic of harmonious moving shapes and an unparalleled elegance of line, these works seem to come alive when the wind rises. Elements flutter, whirl and twirl in mesmerizing movements that highlight Howe's expert ability to convey effortless motion through meticulous engineering and crafting. Because his sculptures move with such fluidity, they appear to float in the wind.
