Art must make us think again.
Or should it be beautiful? Strange? Original? Use new materials? Surprise us? Impact us? Interrupt our day? Remind us of the past? Scare us out of apathy? Inform us of social injustice? Integrate technology? make us laugh? Talk about our feelings? Whatever you wonder about....that is what art should do!
What will your art do?
