Abstract

We experience the world around us by our five main senses, namely vision, hearing, touch, taste, and smell that are demonstrated in the following by artworks. Senses feed our brain with bits of information that help us to build a picture of the complicated world around us. Scientifically a sense is defined as a means of receiving information from the environment or from the body and converting it to an electrical - chemical code that is processed by the brain. The sense of vision demonstrated by Figures 1-3 is the most important one that enables us to see the world around us. It is defined as the perception of an object by the eye or the process, power or function of seeing. In the process of seeing light stimuli received by the eye are interpreted by the brain and constructed into a representation of the position, shape, brightness, and usually colour of objects in space.
