Kinesthetic Realism

Kinesthetic Realism is an artistic approach that emphasizes capturing and expressing the physical, tactile qualities of subjects—how they feel, move, and occupy space. Rather than focusing solely on visual likeness or symbolic meaning, it seeks to convey the sense of weight, texture, and bodily presence through realistic depiction. This approach values genuine representation of physical experience, aiming to evoke a visceral understanding and connection for the viewer by emphasizing the tangible, lived qualities of the subject.
