A Holy Moment

new blog title

In with the new and out with the old
Many of my thoughts and ideas tend to revolve around the concept of art. I almost tend to see my ideas as art in itself. But I don't like this word, art. Its extremely loaded with millions of personal definitions. For example, the moment I mentioned the fact that an idea in itself is an art, many people may have pictured some artsy fartsy pretentious man saying this. Thats exactly why I do not want to associate myself with the identity of an artist. I am nothing more than a human being. Whenever I describe myself as an artist or emerging artist, there seems to be an automatic and invisible divide between myself and others. Why and what this is, I do not know. I don't want the world to see me as primarily an artist, as something different than a human being, or as someone better or worse than anyone else. In essence we are all artists. We all struggle with the experience and process of mark making and the justification of our own self-relevance, humans living and breathing the experience of life, but that isn't an artist, that's a human being. I am not an artist, I am not a poet, I am not a visionary, I am a human being. I am an invisible man. I do not make art. I leave marks. And since my old blog title was: an artist without an audience, it is now time for a change.

This came to me while listening to Colplay's new single, Viva la Vida (now available on iTunes).
