We all love to express ourselves, be it through social media, clothing, accessories, and the list goes on. Art in the home is a perfect way to express your artistic and aesthetic interests in a way different from most, since original and limited edition artwork is unique and handcrafted.
Here we are going to discuss “Why Artworks are essential for a Happy Home”
Far gone are the days when artworks were taken as an afterthought. These days paintings, wall arts, and Sculptures have become the focal point of home decor. Here are a few important points that highlight their importance in a happy home:
ARTWORK CREATES MOOD
Few relevant and verified articles show that brain scans revealed looking at works of art trigger a surge of dopamine into the same area of the brain that registers desire, pleasure, and romantic love (https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/what-the-wild-things-are/201109/love-desire-and-art). Romantic, sublime landscapes provoke contemplation of nature and purity. Such works then create a mood of peace and are good for relaxation rooms such as the bedroom.
THE ART COMPLETES YOUR HOME
Paintings are one form of art that gives a complete look to your home. If you think of it, a few walls in your house are the most neglected spaces. You have to understand that your walls have the potential to either make or break the overall interior aura of the house. Lining-up your walls with carefully selected artwork that specifically matches the surrounding colors of the room can really enhance the tone and mood in that room. Even if you don’t have many decorative items, a large painting on the wall can definitely add the artistic royal touch in your house. The overwhelming flow of texture and in-depth visual artwork or a painting added to your room can never be overemphasized.
ART GIVES PEACE
Well! the work is busy and so we are. Busy, the fast-paced world demands speed and productivity, the home should be a place of relaxation. Coming home from a busy day at work to sit on your couch and stare at a TV or a blank wall is not as recharging or relaxing as enjoying an artwork purchased with the means to create a positive mood. Not to mention how we feel when caring for little children. Art offers a way for them to see the world and for us to be inspired. Art helps you to relax because it can be an expression of the anxiety and stress from your body, onto the medium – a way of getting it out of your system.
ARTWORK ADDS PERSONAL CHARACTER TO YOUR HOME
“The whole culture is telling you to hurry, while the art tells you to take your time. Listen to art.” -Junot Diaz. Without words, art can be the perfect way to express who you are to both yourself and others. When you love a piece enough to hang it on your wall, that story speaks volumes about you.
Whether it’s your personality or what you value in life, art can be the perfect translator. This lets you forge deeper connections with those who come into your home.
ARTWORK HELPS US VALIDATE AND RECOGNIZE OUR EMOTIONS.
“Everyone discusses my art and pretends to understand—as if it were necessary to understand—when it is simply necessary to love.” – Claude Monet
Whether it’s a memory or a feeling, a piece of art can evoke powerful emotions while gazed upon. Art can cheer us up after a bad day, make us remember, or inspire us to do more in life. It can provide comfort that we are not the only ones feeling a certain way.
Needless to say, we need artwork in our house to make it a perfect “Home”
