Psychology and Art

Since the distant past, when humans were faced with unknown and strange phenomena, they sought a way to find peace of mind and satisfy their innate need for spirituality (connection with the sky and the unseen), beauty (internal and external), until they gradually learned that they could achieve their goal through rituals of worship and by resorting to sound, words, rhythmic sounds, and poetic (melodic) literature. One of the constant solutions to achieving peace among people from the past to the present has been the tendency towards art.
