Beautiful Losers

Art is a way of coping with our perceived realities. As individuals, we are all separated from one another. While we may live on the same planet in a physical sense, our minds seem to reside on different planes. In this way, reality is an illusion because truth feels different to everyone. Art acts as a sort of window into other people's planes. At the same time, we are still stuck on a different side of the window than the person in that plane. Art as a window will never look the same to any one who looks. Art is an attempt to unify the planes by sharing stories and point of views. This can be helpful because by sharing perspectives, our horizons may be broadened and we might learn something new. Cliches are formed when art fails to present old information in a new way. You can look at something a hundred times, but sometimes the message might not be understood until art tells the story in a new medium. Art has many uses and it is a force that can be used for good or for evil; it is up to us to choose. What reality do you want to adopt and share with the world?
