what is art /his/

baby dont hurt me

A concept impossible to define to satisfy all conditions. Our language isn't advanced enough - just like we can explain color to blind person, we can't explain art to a person who resists to understand it.

The Deep Dark Fantasy by Van DarkHolme

A broken word. We understand how we are supposed to treat and admire art, but no one really knows what art itself is anymore. It's a hollow husk of a word now, anything can be art merely by declaration.

I said it's impossible to define art in a wat that people like you are satisfied. You'd post a garbage bin and ask me whether it's art, which in most cases is not, and ask me how it's different than looking at a picture of Picasso.

I, not a woman, can't think of a way to explain it to you, if you don't even want to. Another example is trying to do math without axioms.
