Abstract

At the start of 2020, novel coronavirus swept the world, bringing cities to a halt and economies to a standstill. For months, mental health became an urgent concern in the wake of the epidemic. Art healing as an interdisciplinary psycho therapeutic approach combining art, psychology and medicine is gaining more and more attention and attention and numerous public art exhibitions have emerged. Fibre art, as a branch of art, has its origins in the ancient Western art of tapestry, but in the course of its development it has fused the best traditional textile cultures of the world and incorporated modern art concepts, making it an older and younger art form than other art forms, and a more positive exploration of the value of art for the psychological healing of people in post-disaster situations. In this paper, we focus on the advantages of fibre art for post-disaster psychological treatment and the mode and role of psychological intervention, and consider and explore the methods of fibre art therapy applied to post-disaster psychological intervention, as well as the development and innovation of psychological relief methods.
