The Kidney Dialysis Ward at the Amsterdam Children's Hospital - "The Greatness of The Small"
Emiliano Campobello has a special passion for creating murals and paintings for healing spaces. In 2003, he was commissioned to paint three areas for The Amsterdam Children's Hospital (Emma Kinderziekenhuis): a day-clinic waiting room, the Emergency Room waiting area, and the Kidney Dialysis Ward. It was while painting the Kidney Dialysis ward that he fully realized the healing qualities of the work they were making. The self-esteem of the child patients there grew, the care-givers were happier, and visitors had a more positive attitude as they entered. The artwork he has created for children's hospitals, pediatricians, childrens dental clinics is some of the work he is most proud of.

We had them come over and gave them ideas of what we were after and they quickly took our ideas and created a spectacular window with shutters that look out onto a tropical view of lush palms and mountains. They also created a faux mantel of bamboo, and it gives the illusion of a real mantel, however it is painted on the wall and I keep thinking that I have to dust the top of it! Everyone who sees it first thinks that it is a real mantel and painting because it looks three dimensional; until they take a second look and realize that it is painted on the wall! It has been a wonderful experience working with a professional team who took the time to listen to our ideas and were able to implement this impressive design for us to enjoy for years to come.S.
