The Secret In Art Is The Beauty

Art is simply an expression of how we feel about our environment. It could also be described as the communication or expression of our feelings, ideas in the form of painting, sculpture, graphic, dancing, singing and so on. This goes a long way to tell that there is a symptom of art in activities of our daily lives.

I could remember my first art assignment when I just resumed secondary school. Art being one of my favourite subjects took a special part of my heart. We were asked to make a painting about a village market scene. My classmates came with different pieces of art, some of which can only be explained by the one who painted it. This is what art is about. The beauty of art is in the encryption which can only be understood when the artist gives an explanation backing up his or her idea.

The Beauty of Art Is In The Deep Secret

Personal
Since art is usually personal, it could become a piece made from the mind of the creator and connotes what he or she is trying to explain or pour out at a particular given time. Art is a deeply personal form of expression, and sharing it with others can make the artist feel vulnerable and exposed. Hence, to take authority in a work of art, the artist keeps the secret in the piece through shapes, figures or and strokes.

Control
One of the vitality of ancient pieces of art is the fact that the originator has control over the work because only him or her could give an accurate interpretation of the work. This act enables the artist to maintain full control over when, where and how their work can be seen or interpreted.

Mystery
When a piece of art is understood by everyone, it makes the work become too cheap and weak. The intrigue in the work of art is in the mystery behind it. This is why people want to attend an art show so that the creator or artist can give a forehand explanation of the reason behind the work of art.

Critique
The public may turn out to criticise the piece when they understand the work at first sight. Critiquing a work of art is part of the processes of validity, but if not properly handled may discourage the artist from doing more work. Hence, the secret behind a work of art, be it dance or painting or sculpture is best revealed by the artist.

Privacy
Some art works are personal reflections of an artist's problem or life, hence he or she wants to keep the meaning fully to themselves because it could be profound and private. To create a sense of exclusivity, the artist makes the work deep in thoughts and personal reflections which he alone can find when the artwork comes to sight.

Commercialization
The originator of an artwork may want to keep it away from pirates who are hungry for new and meaningful artwork to reproduce and sell to make money. Many artist have suffered exploitation because their work and it meaning is in the hand of the public.

To say the least, at is beautiful when the true meaning is hidden in the mind of the creator or artist.
