| Re: What i see in my mind's eye very cool art. i see what i see and i cannot be sure i see that. for art people see what they possess inside their own mind for symbols and approximations of established symbol systems - can refer to language systems and the structures produced by them and also visual symbology used by cultural and experiential maps of the world the observer carries within and projects outward for the purpose of navigation, understanding, possible growth, and ultimately survival. art becomes good when it touches on a truth, and causes a symbol to break down or bring to question it's basic surface meaning in regards to an observer. this means change within the framework of a properly attuned observer. art that corresponds too heavily to an established cu7ltural myth system - seldom carries any real information value and can be considered 'redundant'. - i like yours - because it calls into play what the observer puts into it (tells alot about them when they answer your question or comment on the peice of art) and does not coorespond directly with cliche' conventions found in low-grade art - no matter how well crafted. good art brings to mind questions - the best art calls into question profound truth. low grade art pleases the eye or confuses a subject and offers little in the way of impact. as with art as with good writting/art as opposed to writting/proffesion. long winded i know, thanks for sharing your artwork. |
