might be late to the game but art professors can be so wrong about so many things.
they donāt know everything they just know what they been taught.
being able to come to your conclusions regarding your work or art in general is so important
make art to make art. make art to make people feel.
donāt get caught in the loop of trying to get a good grade.
donāt get caught in the loop of trying to sell something.
just make art!
(but be open to criticism, itās a balance)
not even trying to be funny but they be pulling shit out their ass just to hate š

just had an epiphany about how everyone seeks something different from art, how we all perceive it based on who we are as individuals ā¦ for the longest time in art/film school iāve been scared to pursue the art i want out of fear that it will turn out very bad.
but i hope we make art anyway despite that fear, as long as it sustains ourselves and the people who matter. i hope we all get to freely make ābadā art š«

i am really passionate about going to my schools gallery crawl where all the undergrads exhibit their art. The work folks make range from uninformed, to simply bad, to copying other famous artists, or just trying to make it through art school. Genuinely, itās inspiring to see people try stuff out, get halfway, play around, wrestle with a concept and fail (sometimes hilariously). and bitch itās necessary! being audacious, playful and unafraid of failure, intrigued or exhausted, itās all a part of making. being so scared to screw up makes u make no work at all.
I made so so so much bad work in school and i presented it proudly. I wanna get back to failing spectacularly and doing it with a grin.

i feel like internet culture has conditioned me to feel like I always have to have an opinion on something. And as a result Iām always judging an artist work as good or bad based on my own individual taste. But itās absolutely bonkers to think that Iām the target audience for everything an artist that I like makes. Sometime, the song or the painting or the movie ect. Is not for me, and thatās fine. It doesnāt mean what they are producing is bad, it simply means itās not resonating with me. And thinking this way allows me to respect an artists decision to experiment with their art form a bit more. Because I can only imagine how constricting it must be to feel pressure to create just for people approval and consumption. Maybe sometime the artists just wants to put out a funny little song that makes them happy. And sure, I may not get it and it may not be something I want to listen to, but that doesnāt mean itās bad, just that itās not for me, and thatās okay.

letās face it
social media is dead.
create your own corners of the internet!
to code is to world build.
i coded and designed my own blog two years ago (itās linked if you want to take a look at it)
itās full of my thoughts, music, art, literally everything i love.
i lowkey abandoned it (school was beating my ass but we move)
iām coming back to it because doesnāt require that i adhere to algorithms or trends.
itās authentic. itās feels true to me. it feels like home
even if u donāt code, start off with pinterest, are.na, substack
i feel like the internet can be used to connect us maybe just not in traditional ways like social media.
