ABSTRACT

Pain is an unpleasant experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage with sensory, emotional, cognitive and social components. Through artists we can improve our understanding of pain, Frida Kahlo, the Mexican artist, manages to share with us the agony of her life through her paintings, Renoir, on the other hand, makes majestic works using canvases and cushions that support his body while he paints, Jawlensky shows us in his paintings the effect of pain from the beginning of his paintings to the end, the tones of the colors, the lines, transmit us beyond the word pain, Dokumaci, challenges observation and the simplicity of life when something as simple as getting dressed is impossible for someone with rheumatoid arthritis. The first step to eradicate or control pain is the understanding of its extent, the association for the study of pain defines it with sensory, emotional, cognitive and social components.
