This study aimed to understand the experience of an art therapist who helped a Hospice Patient and his family through death. For this purpose, in-depth interviews were held from August to November 2018, and the main research participant was a hospice palliative care art therapist with four master’s degrees in art therapy. Van Manen’s hermeneutic phenomenological method were tried to derive a total of 5 essential topics and 16 sub-topics. Based on the study of hospice art therapy, the following three results were obtained. First, the Patient and his family members had the opportunity to express their feelings through art therapy in a hospice palliative care setting and experience forgiveness and reconciliation. Second, the hospice patients and their families acknowledged the importance of the patient’s remaining life, and shared meaningful memories for themselves. Third, the art therapist s work with the patient was a valuable gift to the patient s family. The purpose of this study was to make the preparation process to say farewell meaningful for the hospice patient and his family by using art therapy as a preventative healing process for suffering after loss. Through this study, it was found that the art therapist becomes a bridge connecting the patient and the minds of the family, and that the patient becomes a tool to dignify the end of life. In addition, in the hospice palliative care field, the art therapist has significance as the patient s final companion in life.
