Many previous studies have shown that art appreciation relaxes the human mind and reduces stress. We also hypothesized that art appreciation positively affects viewers' motivation and creativity and started research to confirm this. Firstly, based on the idea that viewing art in an immersive environment that provides a sense of endless space can maximize the effects of art appreciation, an immersive environment was constructed using a mirror display that functions as both a mirror and a display. As a next step, we measured and analyzed physiological data to support our hypothesis. In this paper, after briefly describing the configuration of the immersive environment, we report on the results of the measurement and analysis of electrocardiographic (ECG) data when art content is compared with geometric figure content and no content using the environment.
