A Philosophical Perspective of Children’s Creativity through Artist’s Perception

Abstract

There are multiple dimensions of artistic expressions practiced since pre history for satisfaction of human aesthetics.  Some are inherent and some can be acquired through art practice. These may be trigged as a response to various external and internal stimuli. This paper focuses on that very initial response of a child like wonder, when he views this world with a fresh eye and transforms its imagery in a fearless and spontaneous manner on a piece of paper or slate, on a wall or on a floor. The philosophy of Child Art and its affect on the aesthetics of an adult artist along with social responses will be explored through the perception of the author.  The main focus will be on the style, concept and imagery produced by children of ages four to pre adolescence. It will also evaluate and explore the reasons of the researcher who is incorporating this child like imagery in her work. The pivotal of this research will be line, form and color, In the conclusive annotation the utility of art as a medium of expression and its beneficial aspect for children in our society will be discussed on the basis of mental development, physiological changes and psychological level at different stages of the growth pattern to provide a better understanding of an infantile.
