- The Illusion of Reality: How Art Shapes Our View of the World Jeffrey Besecker 58:36
In this episode of The Light Inside, we explore the complex nature of color perception and what it teaches us about our understanding of the world.
Joining us is Master Atelier Artist, Mandy Theis, as we discuss how our perceptual filters shape our understanding of the world around us, highlighting the role of selective attention, cognitive biases, cultural influences, and memory limitations.
Mandy also introduces the Atelier art training techniques and cognitive perspectives as tools for gaining insight into our perspective forming dynamics.Â
Tune in to gain valuable insights into shaping and questioning our perspectives and challenging how we choose to see the world.
