How Manifestation Art Is Becoming A New Medium Of Self Expression
A new form of art is here and to stay, that is helping people in the art of manifesting and breaking out of limiting beliefs
Filling your diary
with imagination, ideas of the future- can we call this art? That is exactly
what the world is moving towards and that is what is being encouraged to use
this ‘self-help’ technique that helps to channelize your thoughts and manifest
them as future outcomes.
The concept
became more prevalent with Rhonda Byrne’s book The Secret and Oprah Winfrey and
has now become a popular art form as well. There are many ways to
manifestation- writing, speaking or drawing.
A new name here
is Natascha Shah, a Delhi based manifestation artist. She includes whimsical
and intricate black ink sketches in her art form. Most can be found on the social
media. One intended to unleash creativity, for instance, shows a woman with
cascading hair holding a sitar, sitting amid swirling leaves and dancing
vines. Meanwhile a cozy cottage surrounded by mountains, pine trees and
twirling smoke, spangled with stars and a crescent moon unfurling from the
chimney, is symbolic of new beginning.
Dreams and future
plans can be so beautifully put down as art forms, if you are fond of art that
is. There is more of a comforting feeling in doing so and that is one reason this
art form is getting great popularity abroad. Its most comforting premise of course
remains “believe and you shall receive.”
The therapy is
also undeniable behind this whole premise. It helps the mind to set purposeful
intentions, after which we are able to set ourselves a goal and minimise the
unlimited distractions that will keep us from reaching that goal.
These artists
draw complex manifestations into easy-to-understand images. Artist Leeanne
Brennan, from Chapel Hill, North Carolina for example actually runs
classes in her studio to learn how to ‘unlock limiting beliefs.’
Artistic skills
are not a prerequisite for creating manifestation drawings, however. “Even
stick figures and squiggles are fantastic because you are not distracted by the
‘beauty’ of the art. Manifestation art is powerful because of the meaning and
deeper understanding it creates for you, not anyone else,” says Brennan, who
creates simple black and white drawings including a figure going through what
it feels like to break through to the other side of what one desires.
