In Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, a psychiatric clinic is open exclusively to women, with a particular focus on artistic practice. The institution is following in the footsteps of the illustrious Van Gogh, who was interned at the clinic in 1888, and where he painted several of his greatest masterpieces. "If he had known that we were creating the answer to his dream here, I think he would have been proud," says psychiatrist Jean-Marc Boulon, who runs the health centre, where a wing of the building is also open to tourists.
