Art

express your emotions - music, poetry, painting,

dancing, singing, laughing, loving, living

creation & reception of art

establishes dialogue with mirror neurons - sensory stimuli...

art is self discovery

a good artist creates what they are

art has a sacred status -

raises us to higher moral & spiritual plane

shared experiences w/art emotional connections

active dialouge b/t artist & spectator & universal

Elusive

The beauty of human sadness, the song of an emotion we all can feel. - Chekhov

Purpose of great literature: to help us recognize and be conscious of what we experience but do not really notice.

Street photography is when you can smell the street and feel the dirt. - Bruce Gilden

*

"Yes, the elusive beauty of human sorrow which men will not for a long time learn to understand and describe, and which it seems only music can convey."

*

I can show you enough love to break your heart forever.

 

A good photographer meets chance all the time.

Rhythm

The author uses all the enchantments:

language, rhythm, music and spirit.

Artistic emotion provokes thought

and gives the feeling of beauty.

A work of art is a force that attracts,

absorbs the available forces

of the one who comes close to it.

Extraordinary

How many more full moons will you see?

 

 

"Rejoice, go and remember me." - Sappho

 

 

"Photography provokes language, new discovery, abstract dream like qualities. Extraordinary - that's what I respond to." - Moriyama

 

 

"Find what you love and let it kill you."

"What a circus, we're all going to die - love each other - we don't. We are eaten by nothing."

"Some people never go crazy. What truely horrible lives they must lead." - Bukowski

 

 

"Flooded with image overload people don't feel much emotion any more ... overstimulation (C-19), people lose sensitivity & aesthetic judgement so they will not learn anything meaningful." - Ai Weiwei
