Your personal Tumblr journey starts here
1- Is my art environmentally friendly? If I'm selling art, is my packaging, paper, paint etc environmentally friendly or am I simply creating more plastic merchandise that will end up in the trash.
2- How does my art and myself exist under capitalism? What's my role in this system? What does my art uphold? Do I want to change that?
3- What is truly important to me, and does my art reflect that? Am I making art to please the algorithm or a trend? Am I happy with the art that I'm making? Am I simply regurgitating usamerican tastes that have been fed to me?
I've been thinking a lot about how to reconcile my political stances and my art and also what do I want to do with my life and what makes me happy. Being more conscious of the decisions I make regardless of what I'm told I need to do. Even If I need to force myself out of my confort zone, I want to look back 30 years from now and see meaning and purpose to what I'm doing.
