psych
we are exploring one of our 6 pillars, psych (psychology) through an aesthetic experience.
aesthetic experiences are offered by multiple contexts, (e.g., museums, galleries, churches, etc.). Several psychological perspectives considered aesthetic experience as a rewarding process and suggested a link between aesthetic experience and pleasure (Berlyne, 1974; Leder et al., 2004; Silvia, 2005).
we will be having a look at Isamu Noguchi’s “a new nature” exhibition.
‘the nature of trees and grass is one thing, but there are many degrees of nature. Concrete can be nature. Interstellar spaces are also nature. There is human nature. In the city, you have to have a new nature. Maybe you have to create that nature.’ – Isamu Noguchi (1970)
save the date: 27th February
where?: SE1
time: 10h-13h
there will be a catch up beforehand over coffee and food before heading into the exhibition around 1200h. Aesthetics with a full stomach is a lot better than an empty one.
