Arts & Creativity
Exploring Arts & Creativity investigates the profound impact of artistic expression and creative practices on human connection and alignment. Our research explores how engaging in creative activities, such as music, dance, visual arts, and theater, both uses and fosters social synchrony to enhance interpersonal relationships. We examine the body-based nature of artistic coordination, emphasizing the importance of physical presence and movement in creating shared experiences. This research theme seeks to demonstrate the value of artistic endeavors in enriching individual lives and strengthening community bonds.
