Art & Humanities Reflections (AHR) is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal committed to advancing research in the art, humanities, and their intersections with culture, creativity, and society. Our mission is to provide a platform for scholarly inquiry and creative exploration that sheds light on the cultural, philosophical, and artistic dimensions of human experience. By fostering interdisciplinary research and critical reflection, AHR contributes to the ongoing dialogue on how the art and humanities shape, and are shaped by, contemporary global challenges.
The journal serves as a vibrant space for the exchange of ideas and the dissemination of original research, review articles, and creative works that explore the intersections of art, history, philosophy, and cultural heritage. By addressing key societal issues through a humanistic lens, AHR aligns its work with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly those focused on quality education, cultural preservation, peace and justice, and reducing inequalities. We believe that human progress requires not only scientific and technological advances but also cultural understanding, philosophical inquiry, and artistic reflection.
The scope of AHR spans the most critical issues and emerging themes in the art and humanities. We welcome original research, review articles, methodological innovations, and case studies that provide new perspectives on the cultural, philosophical, and artistic dimensions of human existence.
Our thematic domains include, but are not limited to:
- Cultural Heritage, Preservation, and Museology (Aligned with SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities, SDG 4: Quality Education, SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals)
- Language, Literature, and Linguistic Studies (Aligned with SDG 4: Quality Education, SDG 5: Gender Equality, SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities)
- History, Philosophy, and Classical Studies (Aligned with SDG 16: Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions, SDG 4: Quality Education, SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities)
- Visual, Performing, and Media Art (Aligned with SDG 4: Quality Education, SDG 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth, SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities)

- When Science Meets Art (WSMA) — A Space Without Borders (Aligned with SDG 4: Quality Education, SDG 9: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure, SDG 16: Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions, SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals)
This domain explores the limitless space where art and science converge. It promotes research that blends the analytical precision of science with the interpretive depth of art. Studies in this domain cover emerging fields such as neuroaesthetics, AI-generated art, artistic data visualization, and human-machine creative collaboration. This boundary-defying approach reflects the growing relevance of cross-disciplinary collaboration in the modern academic landscape.
Through these core areas, Art & Humanities Reflections (AHR) aims to foster interdisciplinary dialogue, cultural exchange, and intellectual exploration. Our goal is to create a scholarly space where the past, present, and future of human culture are examined through the lens of art, humanities, and cross-disciplinary reflection. By publishing high-impact, high-quality research, AHR serves as a bridge between creative practice, philosophical inquiry, and humanistic scholarship, inspiring new perspectives on our shared human experience.
We are committed to supporting research that bridges academic theory with artistic practice, empowering scholars, artists, and cultural innovators to explore new frontiers in art, philosophy, and human understanding. By publishing high-quality, peer-reviewed research, AHR serves as a catalyst for global reflection, artistic engagement, and interdisciplinary dialogue.
