Art is a combination of studying and understanding the world and then letting the subconscious mind take over, using the artist’s experiences to create connective art. Without the subconscious artist brain, observation is just observation and thoughts are only thoughts. The subconscious artist brain can make something out of nothing, look at darkness and find pain. It needs to create and if its vessel- if an artist fails to observe life- that artist will most likely create something related to being disconnected from the world or being in their own minds. The artist brain can thrive on its own without deep observation of the world and material things.
