Psychedelic Art: Exploring the Captivating Aesthetic of Psychedelia
Psychedelic Art refers to a diverse range of artistic creations that emerged in the late 1960s, aiming to portray the inner world of the psyche through graphic and visual depictions. The term "psychedelic" was coined by British psychologist Humphry Osmond, who used it to describe the mind-manifesting effects experienced after ingesting psychedelic drugs. This art form sought to reveal the hidden depths of the soul and recreate the hallucinatory experiences induced by substances like LSD and psilocybin.
