I feel art can help people in a variety of ways, as communication, as a bridge, as a unifying tool to help people see things and their surroundings in a completely new dimension. It also helps to inform them of world events, history, culture and spirituality, as a window to a person’s own soul, as a form of entertainment, healing, and a tool for peace and understanding. Societies have always looked at artists for spiritual messages.

We all see things differently, according to our upbringing, culture, values, interest, etc. I’d say children see art in the most pure form, so art in my opinion should not be made for a defined group, but instead, it should reach as many as possible. Some will understand it on one level and others with more life experiences and education will see the underlying messages and hopefully enough will respond to it.
