- Wksp: The Art of Perception: How Psychology Shapes What We See

Catalog description

This workshop explores the psychology of visual perception and its critical role in clinical practice, research, and everyday decision making. By analyzing artworks and visual media, participants will examine key psychological concepts such as perceptual filters, cognitive biases, situational awareness, pattern recognition, selective attention, and the influence of emotions on perception. Through discussions, interactive exercises, and hands-on analysis of visual media, students will refine their observational skills, improve their ability to communicate objectively, and gain insight into how mental heuristics shape their perceptions.
