“Art is the desire of a man to express himself, to record the reactions of his personality to the world he lives in.” –Amy Lowell
Art is something we are constantly surrounded by. Its inescapable, not that you should want to. Without art there isn't really a reason to live, to be, to think, or to love. And aren't those some of the more prominent ideas for the true purpose of life? Art is the only way we can express ourselves, and its our right and obligation to do so. A world without art wouldn't really exist, because people wouldn't be able to thrive in it. A world without art could and would quickly spiral into a Brave New World type of society. Desire manifests itself in humans quite peculiarly. Sometimes in anger, happiness, passion, drive, and sometimes in art. Art is the simple way, maybe the easy way. But people keep going back to it, because it works incredibly well. The world would be a sad sad place without art and the artist.
