Aphorism #2

“Art is not a mirror with which to reflect reality, but a hammer with which to shape it.”

-BERTOLT BRECHT (Germany)

So, art shouldn’t be about something everyday or what we already know about… it should be delicately prepared with imagination and creativity and unveiled properly to the unaware world… Is this why art can never “not have a point”? Even if a piece is made simply because an artist was paid or perhaps they just wanted to, there is something in the technique of the work that the artist gives away. A piece of them, their time, etc. has been carefully conducted for some… audience.
