What is art? What's the function and value of art?
I've recently taken a more artistic approach on life, and started to notice some overlap between art and spirituality. Then I realize, art means different things to different people. So I want to ask, what's your definition of art? Is it
A) an expression of emotions or thoughts?
B) a representation of beauty?
C) a product of the energy/consciousness flowing into and out of the artist?
D) a distillation or magnification of certain subjects for appreciation or contemplation?
E) or ...?
Then I start to wonder, what's the purpose/value of art? Is it correct to say that human is the only species that produces art?
