As we know, every artist uses his work to tell a story. And since that artist is a part of our human world, his work automatically becomes a reflection of his society, culture and beliefs at the time of the creation.
However, art can also transcend time and boundaries and can be interpreted differently through time space and dimension…..
But to start… every art work, is a choice made by the artist. And our job as art students is to observe and recognize the choices, and then interpret what the artist was consciously (or subconsciously) trying to say… and what we as educated art students can further interpret and read into the artwork.
