About the Book
New Eyes focuses on the power of art to transform the mundane; how art can be an invitation to appreciate the parts of life we usually ignore due to habitual exposure.
"One of our major flaws, and causes of our unhappiness, is that we find it hard to take note of what is always around. We suffer because we lose sight of the value of what is before us and yearn, often unfairly, for the imagined attractions of elsewhere."
from Art As Therapy by Alain De Botton and John Armstrong, chapter 7 on Appreciation.
