There is enough noise around us in our cities and our media, visual stimuli and chaotic soundscapes that invade our bedrooms and bathrooms, too many voices speaking out to us, uninvited, arrogant and boastful, mechanically enticing us with words and images. They vie for our attention, our devotion, our time and resources.
Because Arts call forth what's most alive in us, the natural and the spiritual, connecting us to the essence of who we are, and because it sort of bypass any barrier and touches the very skin of our souls, artists are hired to create the marketing tools of what we now culturally refer to as "the Matrix." Our culture is a testimony to the mind-boggling talents we are blessed with, however, the heart and soul of most of the work we are exposed to is to illicite a response from our heart that will make us reach for out wallet. And that is violating an unspoken oath that artists should be made aware of (not only do we have gifts, we are also a gift to our people) because of the sheer power and edge artistic talent gives us.
But Arts could also be used differently. There should be integrity in our craft, and better still, our creative journey should mirror our own human journey because then, we have something of even more value to share. And that is the path I favor.
