The Point and Us: Pointillism That Makes Sense

The goal of pointillism is not to create a copy of the observed image. The aim of pointillism is to evoke sensations and thoughts in the viewer through the vibration created by the points in the painting. This gives the brain the opportunity to play with the colour and provoke the imagination. In art, it is crucial to provoke imagination and lead to certain insights about the idea. The idea and imagination are the arousal of electronic impulses in the brain, sparks of light between certain neural connections. These sparks in our brain are points of light that interact with other points—cells that create images, thoughts, and feelings in the vast conglomerate known as the human brain.

Why pointillism

Pointillism came naturally to the tip of my brush as I contemplated the nature of the world around me. My development as an artist continued with my curiosity towards nature and the universe. This led me to science and the scientific explanation of nature. In this way, my art evolved, and I reached Pointillism as a personal pursuit and comfort that I feel in my element. For me, Pointillism is an attempt to present the essence of the natural environment.
