The curator can follow directions from therapists to choose works of art that communicate emotions and themes appropriate for each residents' stage of recovery that also take into consideration their stated artistic preferences.

	It should be noted that curation is performed with the knowledge that trauma recovery absolutely requires a stable environment. This is primarily achieved through functional aspects, i.e., physical and emotional safety, continuity of personal relationships, and consistent routines and structure. By contrast, art curation makes only occasional, limited, purely visual decorative changes on a regular, announced schedule—much like maintaining fresh flower displays, but with art. However, in circumstances when a resident is extremely unstable, therapists can simply order all curation to be paused.

Trauma recovery is often slow and gradual, to the point where some get frustrated and lose hope because they feel like they're not getting better. Visual environmental changes serve as cues that can help residents note the passage of time, organize it into spans which can be compared, and then recognize and ultimately celebrate their own progress.

Throughout the common areas of Haven House, there are several spaces where the curator will regularly remove some art objects and replace them with different pieces.

This adds some mental stimulation and shows that attention is being paid to residents' environment for their benefit. This allows a controlled amount of change without causing anxiety—much like maintaining fresh flower displays, but with art.

Visual changes to the environment do more than just break up the monotony.

Trauma recovery is often slow and gradual, to the point where some get frustrated and lose hope because they feel like they're not getting better.

Visual environmental changes serve as cues that can help residents note the passage of time, organizing their time into chunks which can help them in turn acknowledge and celebrate their own progress, which can be harder to recognize without

The curator can also change the artwork on the [[Digital Art Displays]] in all the bedrooms,

following therapists' orders when directed to choose works of art that reinforce emotions and themes appropriate for each residents' stage of recovery.

either as prescribed by a therapist or according to regular schedules.

Experiencing such changes to the their environment can help mitigate residents' depression and feelings of worthlessness or detachment.

These displays are the most dominant visual element in every room that contains one, so changing the artwork has a profound effect on the space.
