Art of feelings: Schorndorf exhibition exposes the hormone world!

Schorndorf, Deutschland - On May 15, 2025, the Kunstverein Schorndorf opened a demanding exhibition in which Christine Dohms and Rüdiger Penzkofer present their creative work. The exhibition that addresses the topic of human feelings at a biochemical level invites visitors to deal with the different chemical formulas of human hormones.

Christine Dohms exhibits her work "Eva & Adam", which consists of white tiles on which the chemical formulas of important hormones are depicted. Of particular note are estrogen that stands in this context for Eva, and testosterone that is represented for Adam. In addition, the cuddly hormone oxytocin is part of the exhibition, which plays a central role in emotional coexistence. This artistic examination creates a direct connection to the biochemical foundations of human emotions and their influence on our relationships.

hormones and their meaning

The influence of hormones on the mood and emotional well -being is a wide range of research in neurobiology. Hormones such as endorphins, which is known as the "happiness hormone", can raise the mood and relieve pain. Adrenaline, on the other hand, acts as a "stress hormone" and can cause fear and nervousness. Serotonin plays a crucial role by regulating the mood and contributing to the promotion of satisfaction and relaxation. This complex interaction makes it clear how essential a balanced hormonal balance is for our psychological well -being.

An imbalance of these hormones can have serious consequences, including mood swings and mental illnesses such as depression or anxiety disorders. Factors such as nutrition, sleep, movement and stress have significant effects on hormone production. A decline in estrogen level, as it occurs in women during menopause, can lead to symptoms such as hot flashes and anxiety. For men, a low testosterone level can be connected to depression.

recommendations for hormone regulation

In order to keep hormone production in balance, certain lifestyle changes are recommended. This includes sufficient sleep and regular sporting activity that releases endorphins. In addition, a balanced diet that is rich in vitamins and nutrients is crucial. Avoidance of stress and relaxation techniques, such as yoga and meditation, can also help regulate hormonal mood swings.

The exhibition at the Kunstverein not only gives visitors the opportunity to experience artistic works, but also sensitize to the biochemical processes that determine our emotional life. The linking of art and science represents a valuable contribution to dealing with the topics of feeling and hormone balance.
