What is NEUROGRAPHICA?

Briefly about the method

NeuroGraphica©  is an innovative drawing method developed by Russian psychologist Pavel Piskarev, PhD. It is relatively young as it was only invented in 2014, yet gathered thousands of followers around the world due to its effectiveness.

NeuroGraphica is a creative and transformative method, which uses the power of conscious, subconscious mind, and higher self, and integrate them during drawing process. It taps directly into our emotions and impressions without engaging our analytical mind. The underpinning key of this method is the ability of our brain to change itself in relation to our changing environment which derives from Neuroscience and Neuroplasticity of the brain. It enable us to create a new neuronetwork in realtion to the topic we draw.

The method utilises simple abstract drawing, the NeuroGraphic line, rounding the corners and 8-step process, which is called the Basic Algorithm. When we put this knowledge into practice and observe ourselves, a transformation occurs. Our mind relaxes, tensions eases, and our perception undergoes a shift.

The other term, often used with Neurographica is Neurographic Art. It is a wider term and it developed from Neurographica yet refers to a less strict and more artistic form. It utilises drawings, paintings and other creative endeavours but does not follow strictly Basic Algorithm. Neurographic Art can serve a purpose of art therapy to support creative expression, exploration of emotions and thoughts.
