What is Art?


I had an amazing chat with a person at TEDx yesterday. Tedx is a conference committed to those who support creative ideas in business, art and who basically want to make the world a better place by doing so. The lady that I talked to shared her vision of the perfect art collective with me. She explained to me that even amongst the world of creatives that prejudices could emerge. We had an awesome discussion about the importance of diversity in every area but especially in this one. After our talk I had a poetic brainstorm and quickly rushed to a nearby bench to write it down. I could not find her afterwards to share it but no worries her & I will be grabbing coffee soon. I thought that you, the readers could be the first to experience my poetic creation. Hope you like it...


What is Art?

A blending of Diversity

A mixture of thought

The collaboration of the creative

to show beauty to ALL eyes

What is Art?

Differences

Standing out

Standing together

Blended vision

for ALL to celebrate

What is Art?

The absence of structure

the elimination of category

the meaning of life

What is Art?

Unity.
