I am an artist - I have an autistic son, so he can understand concepts easier sometimes through art. I also use art therapy with OCD snd ADHD children and adults.

Fine art serves as a powerful platform for conveying complex ideas: 1. Metaphor and Symbolism: - Use symbols and metaphors to represent abstract concepts. 2. Visual Metaphors and Allegories: - Create visual stories encapsulating intricate ideas. 3. Contrast and Juxtaposition: - Highlight opposing elements to explore complexities. 4. Multilayered Composition: - Develop compositions with layers for nuanced exploration. 5. Conceptual Art Practices: - Prioritize conceptual ideas over traditional aesthetics. 6. Interactive Installations: - Engage viewers physically and emotionally. 7. Coded and Mathematical Art: - Utilize algorithms for abstract and mathematical concepts.

Often I believe art to be a process where one pulls abstract concepts/images/stories from the mind and translates them into a visual perceivable representation. So fine art can be used to make sense of ones inner thoughts. What is more complex than the mind? Even though we try to convey these complex ideas, I find we fall short because of the illusive nature of perception and perspective. Personally, I think that's what makes creating fun, interesting and healing.

In my experience, abstract expressionism and modernism often are overly used to explain “abstracting reality.” In a technical sense there are so many more rich nuances of variations from reality that more traditional forms of figurative art achieve or that of contemporary experimental genres achieve through futuristic imagination. The idea that spontaneous splashes or modes of painting expresses is just one way to abstract reality. In it is a quite obvious one that the contemporary audience has commercialized for house decor.

Complex ideas can be conveyed through art by identifying some of our most visceral and emotional reactions to an idea. By starting an emotional conversation, we are often able to come to an awareness a lot faster, and then trace our way back to intellectual understanding from there. By saving time, we save money, misunderstanding, years of study, getting lost down internet rabbit holes, and deciphering the noise of too many voices weighing in on an idea. Fine art is equalising, allowing more of the population to experience the benefits of intuition that creatives and highly sensitive people have access to. A quality that is becoming more in demand as our world become more tech-based and influenced by A.I.

In my experience artwork is a very powerful form of communication. It absolutely allows an Artist to express complex and complicated ideas and not only ideas but also emotions that might be difficult to make clear through words. It also stimulates dialogue and the dialogue offers opportunities for the Artist to open up doors for understanding, making art a universal language that connects us all.

Visual Art conveys thoughts messages and ideas that no other form of ‘language’ can achieve .. It accesses these via the unconscious minds of both the artist and the viewer …

Keyword is phenomenology, the study of the effects of objects as they become images in the mind. Through semiotics the artist uses language as significance and conations to convey meaning that is then interpreted by viewers. So an object can be created or appropriated from Life and used by an artist to convey meaning.

Symbol making is what many contemporary artist do. By repetitively painting the same subject matter it develops into a story that can turn into a symbol for whatever moral message lies underneath.

In this vein, Picasso said, “Art is a lie that makes us realize truth.” Meaning that art is capable of evoking responses in the viewer that can be multi-faceted beyond what the actual painting, or sculpture, or performance, etc. might represent.

Symbols and color choice specifically will evoke differing emotions among viewers. For those that are colorblind some artworks can be frustrating or challenging if so it’s important to allow these experiences to be described or voiced by individuals.

los símbolos son identidad de cada civilización. Cada época tiene un lenguaje propio y una manera de descodificar la realidad

Es ist immer Frage der Stimmung die man fühlt ob man real oder abstrakt malt oder Lust hat auf kubismus oder surrealismus. So ergeht es mir schon seit 1977 wo ich das erste Ölbild gemalt habe. Heute bin ich für alles offen und male was ich wil. Hauptsache man hat Freude daran.

Todo pensamiento ideas, estado de ánimo, coloridos,abstracción, simbología, etc...es una forma de expresión personal. Depende del estado de ánimo y lo que queremos transmitir

I kept hearing people say "Hate! Hate! Hate!" and wanted to change the narrative to "Love! Love! Love!" So, I started creating 5'x6' paintings of hearts full of flowers. A 5'x6' heart symbolizes love and flowers evoke associations with beauty and love.

in my experience, it has aesthetic roots, because aesthetic in 18centure have divided into 2 part : Kant's idea( Sublime) and Formalism which derived from it. Therefore, Abstract Art and purism... are derived from formalism such as Roger fry.

In simple words, A person won’t be able to know what’s in your mind, your ideas need a medium and hence fine art can be considered as a better medium. It makes people understand better what you want to convey and can allow different perspectives or ideas on the same.

An artist uses shapes, lines, and color to prompt the viewer to stop and reflect. The mind is extremely powerful, and it is a shame if not challenged. The artist creates layers of meaning, inviting the viewer to engage more deeply with the work and focus on its thought-provoking aspects.

An artwork presenting a narrative can be a great jumping off point for creative conversations or art chats with a small or large group.

For many years in Western art, the stories depicted were solely Christian stories from the Bible. Within these confines, artists explored very innovative and creative ways of storytelling. The progression towards realistic imagery can be seen as synonymous with the advent of the photograph. All filmmakers are indebted to Caravaggio for revolutionizing the way dramatic lighting, cinematic lighting, can tell a story. When all the possible visual elements align to tell a story creatively and effectively, you are often left with a compelling work of art.

Storytelling is an art as old as fire. We all have in us that deep seated interest to hear stories like fairytales and legends as they were once told around a campfire. Storytelling is an effective way to deliver complex ideas across ages. And often we don't need much to be able to do that.

With the aid of the artwork, the narration of story which is to address social, political and environmental issues will be well understood because it will be easier for people to relate the story along side with the artwork.

The artist paints to capture the essence of the spirit, and soul of life in all its complexity. To connect and reconnect with the viewer. You don’t just tell the story , you feel it and share it.

I either heard this quote about the process of making art from a former professor or read it somewhere but I've always liked and remembered it: "If you can see, then you can think, and if you can think, then you can see".

In my experience the other responses (1-4) are methods to deliver the same one thing: emotional content. When the artist is able to covey a visceral impression, a knowing or wondering about something on the wordless level it offers the opportunity to understand more about the human condition. Understanding the human condition is the beginning of compassion, which is needed for our foundational wellbeing.

In my experience one of the many ways of conveying new ideas and concepts in the field of fine art is the communication and participation of the audience. The hidden meanings and thought processes in an artwork are partly awaken during the process of creating, viewing, experiencing and even installing a piece. Art as an experience isn't formed in a void and thus requires the interaction of the creator, viewer and its surroundings to reach its full potential.

There are new and exciting things happening in art. Today I combine fine art talent with evidence-based design principles and guidelines to create art that triggers the brain to create happy feelings.

As an artist for over two decades, I've seen the power of abstraction in conveying complex ideas. One technique I find particularly effective is Pareidolia. Abstract forms invite viewers on their journeys of interpretation. They project their experiences and emotions, unveiling layers of meaning unique to each person. Adds a deeper understanding of the artwork's core concept. The ambiguity of pareidolia-based art sparks discussion. Viewers engage with each other, debating their interpretations and uncovering new layers of meaning within the artwork. Abstract art fueled by pareidolia taps into the viewer's emotional core by bypassing literal representation. T Pareidolia bridges the artist's vision and the viewer's interpretation.

Creo que en el análisis se ha perdido un punto de vista y es la falta de interés en que el arte llegue a la gente sin tener que comerciar con el. En una época en que hay grandes problemas con la educacion y como enfocarla hacia el futuro, el arte se ha ido encerrando en circulos de elite donde se mueve el dinero. Y los gobiernos tienen problemas para cuadrar sus presupuestos por lo que en general las partidas dedicadas al arte y la cultura se restringen a lo mínimo posible. Y el arte se encierra en museos, ferias, galerías, coleccionistas, que son los que lo gobiernan. Y el arte en la calle no existe y las ciudades son cada vez mas impersonales. En lo que hay que pensar es en el arte en la calle que pueda emocionar al espectador.
