What Is Art?
Michael Pedziwiatr, MFA
What is Art?
Art is an expression I must undertake. It is about utilizing
different
tools and materials to transform these into something coherent,
making a statement about our life, here on earth. It is
alchemy,
it is transforming lines, shapes, color, stone, wood, steel
or
whatever into a statement or expression of existence. True
art
speaks to it's viewer and moves him or her in some small
way.
Why do you make Art?
I am a visual artist because I love working with my hands
and
challenging my brain. I like to express myself and working
with visual materials like plastic, found objects and paint
energizes and stimulates me. By making objects or metaphors
I am able to communicate with someone I don't even know.
People come into a gallery and look at my work and hopefully
take something away with them. Maybe their life will be
altered in some small way. It is in this manner that I wish
to
have some small affect upon the world. It is my way of
"making music" and enriching lives.
