You know, I just don't believe that art is supposed to make sense. I really don't think it's supposed to be analyzed to death. It's left to the listener or looker to get what they can get from it.

When you look at art made by other people, you see what you need to see in it.
Art is essentially communication. It doesn't exist in a vacuum. That's why people make art, so other people can relate to it.
I guess art itself is insane. Its actual function is rarely clear, and yet people give their hearts and souls and lives to it, and have for all of history.
Art is so subjective, and people can react however they want.
When we can't determine what is art - when you get to that point where we're not sure, that's the greatest likelihood that we're actually experiencing something great.

Art is an investigation.
I have to assume that everybody interprets a piece of art they're exposed to as if it's already perfect in its wholeness, without knowing any backstory.
People shouldn't trust artists and they shouldn't trust art. Part of the fun of art is that it invites you to interpret it.
Art is not what you see, but what you make others see.
I think it is in collaboration that the nature of art is revealed.
