Unconscious mind, conceptual artwork
Unconscious mind, conceptual artwork. It is estimated that around 10 percent of mental activity is conscious thought, with the remaining 90 percent the unconscious mind. Consciousness is the state of awareness, including subjective feelings and sentience. The unconscious mind includes instinct, dreams, memories, and other mental processes that are automatic and occur without awareness. Other states are semi-consciousness and pre-consciousness. The terms were developed by Sigmund Freud and are used in psychoanalysis. An iceberg metaphor (as here) is sometimes used to express these concepts

EDITORS COMMENTS
This conceptual artwork, titled "Unconscious Mind" delves into the hidden depths of our psyche. Created by Science Photo Library, this print beautifully illustrates the complex nature of human consciousness and the vast realm of our unconscious mind. Estimated to account for a staggering 90 percent of mental activity, the unconscious mind remains largely mysterious and enigmatic. Within its submerged depths lie instinctual drives, dreams, memories, and automatic processes that occur without our awareness. This mesmerizing piece draws inspiration from Sigmund Freud's psychoanalytical concepts and employs an iceberg metaphor to depict these intricate psychological constructs. As we gaze upon this thought-provoking illustration, we are reminded that only a mere 10 percent of our mental activity is conscious thought. The rest lies beneath the surface like an underwater world waiting to be explored. It symbolizes the immense potential and hidden resources residing within us. With its serene depiction of an oceanic expanse and a floating brain organ, this artwork invites us to reflect on the complexities of human intelligence and self-awareness. It serves as a visual reminder that there is much more to our minds than meets the eye – a rich tapestry of thoughts, emotions, and experiences constantly shaping who we are. "Unconscious Mind" not only stimulates curiosity about cognitive science but also encourages contemplation about what it means to be aware beings navigating through life's vast sea of consciousness.
