・Why display art in hospitals, welfare facilities, and medical institutions?
Have you ever had the experience of being deeply moved or having a strong impact on your heart when you came into contact with a movie, painting, music, etc.?
Art has the power to move people's hearts.
Medical institutions are home to many patients who visit for a variety of reasons, as well as doctors and nurses who provide treatment and care amidst their busy schedules. Some people may find themselves feeling depressed or down due to fatigue.
In order to improve such spaces, things called "art therapy" and "hospital art" have been gaining attention in recent years!
It is said that simply incorporating abstract paintings and other decorations on the walls or hanging paintings in the waiting room not only livens up the atmosphere, but also creates a relaxing place for patients and helps maintain the motivation of staff.
So, what kind of art is displayed in medical institutions?
・What art is recommended for displaying in hospitals, welfare facilities, and medical institutions?
When you hear the terms "art therapy" or "hospital art," it sounds like something rather formal or difficult, but in fact it's not that formal.
When decorating with art, I think the most important thing is to be considerate of others and think about what kind of space you want to create and how you want to make them feel .
Instead of trying to go for a huge painting or covering the entire wall with art, try starting by hanging a small painting on the wall.
That alone will instantly brighten up the space!
This time, let's take a look at how to choose art pieces that will calm you visually and psychologically!
1. Choose based on the effect of color

One of the relaxing effects is the influence of the colors we see every day.
For example, blue and light blue have a cool feeling and are reminiscent of the sea and sky. These are said to be good colors to wear when you want to calm your mind or concentrate on something.
In addition, red is a color that evokes feelings of fire and warmth, so it is said to be good when you want to lift your spirits or lift your spirits!
In this way, the impression that a color gives can change the mood of the recipient.
It might be a good idea to wear cool colors like blue or light blue when you want to calm down , such as when studying or having an important meeting , and warm colors like red or orange when you want to lift your spirits, such as when hanging out with others or when you want to act big in front of others without feeling nervous!
For areas where many children gather, or for colors that calm the mood of the people in that space, paintings and furniture using soft, pastel colors would be effective.
Part 2: Abstract or figurative?

There are various genres of painting, but among them there are two genres: "abstract painting," which expresses one's own world without being bound by actual forms, and "figurative painting," which realistically depicts landscapes, still lifes, etc.
Which one should you choose? In fact, there is no right answer.
Some people like freely drawn abstract paintings, while others find figurative paintings such as landscapes and still lifes calming. Paintings have a variety of impressions depending on the viewer.
It is important and effective to "incorporate paintings and art into an empty space," so when choosing a painting, keep in mind "what kind of atmosphere you want to create in the space and what kind of mood you want the people who use it to feel."
