The positive impact of soothing artwork on one’s life is invaluable as we discover this World Art Day on April 15
Recollect the times you have visited a museum, or taken painting or pottery lessons. How did you feel? Rejuvenated? Relaxed? Happy? Or all three?
Art in all its forms — whether you are creating it or simply observing it — can trigger the release of dopamine (the feel-good hormone) in your frontal cortex and bring sensations akin to falling in love.
The World Health Organization has also recognised this effect of art on humans which has encouraged major corporates across the globe to resort to employing art to harness its positive effects on their employees. This has proven to reduce stress and mental discomfort brought about by our modern lifestyle. Such is the impact of art on our lives.
