The amazing idea of Art being a manifestation of survival

Abstract

Neurobiology proposes understanding the creative mechanism also as one of projection and association of images from the subconscious (Coolidge et al. 2023), for better efficiency in the relationship of the living being with the environment where it tries to survive. • The Art, or symbolic representation, as a phenomenon of the species Homo sapiens and possibly its predecessors, such as that of Homo neanderthal (Marquetet al. 2023), Homo habilis/rudolfensisor Homo erectus (Harrod, 2014), may have its origin in this neurological phenomenon.
