In my paintings, I don't draw, I sculpt the color.
Neuroaesthetics, as well as cognitive neuropsychology of emotions, have studied the impact of colors on the brain.
The well-known amygdala, the seat of emotions, is also the place where fight or flight signals are responded to. An intense red, for example, is associated with signals of danger or urgency.
Other areas of the brain such as the prefrontal cortex, involved in decision-making, are influenced by colors.
Thus blue promotes calm and concentration allowing better planning and rational decision-making.
More surprisingly, the colors provoke an immediate physiological reaction: blue promotes a slowing of the heart rate, inducing a feeling of calm.
These responses are perceived not only at the emotional level, but also as biological reactions, because they involve the autonomic nervous system.
Experiments in cognitive psychology have shown that blue and green can enhance creativity and problem solving, probably because they evoke a safe and harmonious environment, conducive to mental exploration.
However, the reception of colors depends heavily on the culture one comes from. For example, white is associated with purity in the West, while it is associated with mourning in several Asian cultures.
Enhancing your work environment significantly improves well-being and productivity. Art, especially abstract art, helps reduce stress, promote creativity and strengthen the company's image, making spaces more welcoming and motivating.
