9. Health and the Artist
Visual artists are exposed to different chemicals in their paint and certain working
conditions that puts their health to a risk.
Art historians already suspect that Goya and Van Gogh may have suffered from the ill
effects of the lead in their paints, which can cause depression, pain and personality changes.
Caravaggio may have died due to excessive exposure to lead which was found on the paints
he used.
Performing Artists are plagued with poor nutrition issues and sleep depravation that
affects not only their work but also their social relationships.
The majority of performing artists suffer from overuse syndromes: symptom
complexes defined as injuries caused by the cumulative effects on tissues of repetitive
physical stress that exceeds physiologic limits. Women are more commonly affected than
men. Immediately before the syndrome develops, increases in practice or work time, in the
technical difficulties of the repertoire or equipment use, or in the levels of psychological
stress are common. Use of new instruments or equipment, previous injury, or excessive joint
mobility may be contributing factors.
10. What is Health?
■ Level of functional and metabolic efficiency of a living organism.
■ In humans it is the ability of individuals or communities to adapt and
self-manage when facing physical, mental, psychological and social
changes with environment.
■ The World Health Organization (WHO) defined health in its broader as
"a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not
merely the absence of disease or infirmity."
11. Determinants of the Health of a Person
■ Income and social status
■ Social support networks
■ Education and literacy
■ Employment/working conditions
■ Social environments
■ Physical environments
■ Personal health practices and coping
skills
■ Healthy child development
■ Biology and genetics
■ Health care services
■ Gender
■ Culture
12. Factors Affecting Human Health
I. Intrinsic or internal factors
Disease-causing factors found within the human body are called intrinsic factors.
II. Extrinsic or external factors
Disease causing factors coming from outside the human body are called extrinsic
factors.
13. Intrinsic or Internal Factors
■ 1. Malfunctioning of body parts:
Many diseases are caused due to improper functioning of body organs. For
example, cardiac failure (heart attack) is caused by improper functioning of heart and
short-sightedness, long-sightedness and cataract are caused due to improper functioning
of eye.
■ 2. Hereditary diseases:
Diseases, which are passed on from generation to generation, are called
hereditary diseases. Haemophilia, a rare disease in which the patient’s blood doesn’t clot
easily and sickle cell anaemia, a disease in which the patient’s red blood cells become
sickle-shaped due to the presence of defective haemoglobin are hereditary diseases.
14. Intrinsic or Internal Factors
3. Hormonal diseases:
Hormones control most of our body functions. A defect in the production or
action of hormones can cause hormonal diseases. Diabetes is a disease caused due to the
underproduction of insulin hormone by pancreas.Overproduction of growth hormone
(GH) produced by pituitary leads to development of giants while its underproduction leads
to development of dwarfs.
4. Allergy:
Some people are sensitive to dust, pollen, certain drugs and foodstuffs and
develop rashes on the skin or begin to sneeze.This type of hypersensitivity to certain
substances is called allergy and can be prevented by avoiding contact with the allergy
causing substance.
15. Extrinsic or External Factors
1. Nutritional disorders:
Diseases caused by deficiency or excess of essential nutrients in diet are called
nutritional disorders. Deficiency diseases like kwashiorkor, scurvy, rickets, goiter,
anaemia, etc., are caused due to deficiency of essential nutrients in the body.
2. Infection by microorganisms:
Micro-organisms (bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa) enter the human body
through contaminated food, water and air, through skin contact and insect-bites.
16. Extrinsic or External Factors
■ 3. Habit forming substances:
Substances like alcohol, tobacco and narcotic drugs tend to make a person increasingly dependent on
them. Hence, they are called habit-forming substances. Excessive intake of tobacco in the form of bidi, cigarette or
cigar and direct chewing can lead to accumulation of tar in the nose, throat and lungs causing cough and irritation.
Tobacco smokers also run a higher risk of heart attack.
Alcohol is consumed in the form of wine, whiskey, beer, gin, etc.Alcohol affects the nervous system. It
reduces the alertness of mind. It increases the time a person normally takes to respond or react to an emergency.
(This time is called reaction time.) Excessive intake of alcohol can damage the liver.
Opium and heroin are narcotic drugs.They are highly addictive and it is highly difficult to give them up.
Narcotic drugs damage the nervous system and adversely affect vision, hearing respiratory system and heart.
Excessive intake of narcotics may lead to heath.
■ 4. Environmental pollution:
Dust, pollen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxides pollute the
environment.They cause headache, cough, allergies, lung disorders and bronchitis. Pesticides and chemical wastes
from industries can cause damage to human health.
18. The Human Systems
■ A system of human body means a collective
functional unit made by several organs in which
the organs work in complete coordination with
one another.
■ The 11 systems are: Skeletal System, Muscular
System, Digestive System, Respiratory System,
Circulatory System, Urinary System, Nervous
System, Integumentary System, Reproductive
system, Endocrine system and Lymphatic System
An example how organs of a system
are dependant on one another
30. Individual ResearchWork
■ VA: Look for Health Issues experienced by an actual painter or sculptor because of his materials or
method. Give a profile of the artist with picture, his life’s work some key works and legacy to his
discipline in art. Describe how the artist life or work was affected because of his health problem.
Answer the Questions: As a Visual Artist what can I do to ensure my safety when I do my work? Is doing a
work of art worth the risk of your own health?
■ PA: Look for an actual Actor or Musician or Singer or Director or Dancer that developed a sickness
because of the work he has done. Give a profile of the artist with picture, his life’s work some key
works and legacy to his discipline in art. Describe how the artist life or work was affected because of
his health problem.
Answer the Question: As a performer, do you think you are protected from external forces that tends to
abuse your type of work? What can you do to protect yourself from unhealthy work practices?

As an instrument, it should be taken care of properly, for it to perform properly and even to its best.
Systemic Poisoning The soluble salts of inorganic lead are also strong systemic poisons. They may accumulate within the body over a long period until toxic levels are reached and cell damage ensues. These salts were at one time commonly found in paints, and lead poisoning was frequently seen in children who chewed on their painted cribs or woodwork. In the brain, lead accumulation causes the degeneration of nerve cells. This produces such manifestations as mental depression, psychoses, convulsions, and even coma and death. If an early fatality does not occur, the lead is slowly excreted and complete recovery may be anticipated.
Organs cannot work alone because their are certain needs of every organ that need to be fulfilled and the organ itself cannot fulfill those needs. So all organs of human body need the support of other organs to perform their functions and in this way an organ system is formed.
