Growing old artistically

The creation of art requires a complex interplay between brain and body.
Indeed, the appearance of a finished piece is intimately linked to both the
subjective experiences and mental processes of the artist. Scientists are
beginning to appreciate how art can be used to study changes in body and
mind as individuals age. This research is opening new doors in both our
understanding of the ageing process and the way we diagnose and treat age
related disorders.
