The
Science
of Art

A talented few do not hold the keys to creativity.

 

Humans are born with an innate desire to express, to make and to communicate. While there may be a final product to show, making art happens from the inside out.

 

Art is our first unbridled expression to communicate from a secret inner world of metaphors and emotions. Art, in all forms, elicits emotional experiences by tapping into where our memories are stored. It literally seizes the part of the brain that helps us know who we are, where we've been and that a potential future exists.

 

Evidence-based research in the fields of psychology and neuroscience supports a shift in how we can widen the creative human experience. Witnessing, engaging and making art are proven to relieve stress and anxiety, boost the feel good hormones, and support emotional growth, leading to a more connected every day life:  connected not only with people, but spaces, possessions and especially, nature.

TheTruth About Play

Play is a valuable, scholarly and professional form of learning, communicating and transforming individuals and communities.  

People never out-grow playing; they just forget how.

To play, explore and experiment with matter, matters.

Play allows people to safely experiment with being brave, taking risks, developing new understandings and perspectives, and the breadth of emotions that go along with being outside a comfort zone.

That's where growth lies. There are dozens of memes about that!
