Art is a journey of discovery.
I'd say seeking is one of the fundamental artistic impulses. Art is about discovery. The medium is not the message.
Through the experience of art, the powers of perception and transformation can be awakened, in both those who create it and those who re-perceive it.
We talk about the vulnerability involved in sharing our work publicly. I don't think we talk enough about the real vulnerability involved in making art; if we truly engage the process we are changed by it.
