"I love art, I love beauty. And if it can also be useful and practical..." Miss Gé
Originally, Wording Art was born from the desire to make a beneficial exercise for oneself beautiful and attractive, an exercise used by thousands of people worldwide throughout the ages. It involves using the power of the mind through autosuggestion to achieve the object of a dream, a desire, an ambition, or any sought-after state of being for a more serene, joyful, and abundant life.
"This exercise works. I wanted to make it simply more beautiful, practical, and elegant."
I observed that the majority of daily decision-making is influenced by the visual sense. Bringing beauty into what we do makes the inaccessible more accessible and prevents us from missing an opportunity to discover something good. Isn't it sometimes the packaging that makes us choose one product over another?
Let's take an example with a dish carefully prepared by a talented chef.
A plate where the presentation of the food is disordered results, even before tasting it, in a prejudgment about the potential taste quality of the dish, whereas the same dish presented with art and finesse conquers in advance the one who will taste it.
Another interesting case with a violinist from a world-renowned orchestra, playing beautiful classical themes in the subway... result... almost no one paid attention because the visual context of the apparent situation did not prepare the mind to receive this quality of music at that precise moment.
Another example with a test on conformity, which staged people reproducing a physical movement (standing up and then sitting down) associated with the sound of a door opening in the hall of an institution. This movement was induced by an actor to a first person. Then the actor left the room, and the person continued to reproduce the movement.
In Art: Let's take the example of a painting. The visual allows us to feel various emotions. A colorful canvas can evoke joy, while a dark scene can convey a sense of melancholy. Without the visual, the emotional impact would be much less.
In Education: Diagrams and charts in science class help understand complex concepts like the water cycle or the functioning of the human body. These visual tools simplify information and facilitate memorization.
In Advertising: They use strong images to create a connection between the product and the consumer. An attractive visual can arouse desire and influence the purchase decision.
For Safety: Traffic signs are designed to be quickly understood through their universal symbols. They provide essential information without requiring detailed reading, which is crucial for road safety.
As an artist, I wish to share the beauty of a concept that has helped me and continues to accompany me every day in my quest to become a better version of myself. This concept allows me to achieve my dreams, step by step, using the most solicited sense daily to navigate through life.
