Enjoying art is a personal matter. It's made up by contemplation, silence, abstraction.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think of art as the highest level of creativity. To me, it is one of the greatest sources of enjoyment.
Art is contemplation. It is the pleasure of the mind which searches into nature and which there divines the spirit of which nature herself is animated.
Art never harms itself by keeping aloof from the social problems of the day: rather, by so doing, it more completely realises for us that which we desire.
Art is essentially communication. It doesn't exist in a vacuum. That's why people make art, so other people can relate to it.
Art is, for me, the process of trying to wake up the soul. Because we live in an industrialized, fast-paced world that prefers that the soul remain asleep.
Art is something that opens up and enhances your emotions and that's what I like to think I'm doing.
Art is about the messy and marvelous business of coming to your senses - and also, to the senses of the world.
Art is a marriage of the conscious and the unconscious.
Art is always a search for understanding, and the different levels and frequencies of that search feel completely comfortable and natural to me.
Whether art is defined as a representation of or response to reality, it demands an intense engagement with things we haven't managed to understand fully.
