I'm not intelligent enough to be a doctor, and kind of hands down you can't argue with the worth of that. But I don't really have an opinion about the worth of making art.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
It's kind of not about the quality of the art, as much as this is what I love doing and I'd have a worse time doing anything else. That's kind of as far as I think in terms of philosophy.
Art is often valuable precisely because it isn't a sensible way to make money.
Making art, good art, is always a struggle. It can make you happy when you pull it off. There's no better feeling. It's beauteous. But it's always about hard work and inspiration and sweat and good ideas.
Art is the ultimate luxury good, but one that can make you think, give a you a blast of beauty and enhance your life. Even if the work's made of plasticine.
Art is good, bad, boring, ugly, useful to us or not.
There can be nothing exclusive about substantial art. It comes directly out of the heart of the experience of life and thinking about life and living life.
The price of a work of art has nothing to do with what the work of art is, can do, or is worth on an existential, alchemical level.
Art is what can't be proven mathematically, right, it's where science ends. It's the part that makes you feel good, but you don't know why.
I think it would be very difficult to maintain one kind of art or whatever for your whole life. I think it's unrealistic.
I have a healthy view of what one can do with art.
