"When the artist is alive in any person, whatever his kind of work may be, he becomes an inventive, searching, daring, self-expressing creature. He becomes interesting to other people. He disturbs, upsets, enlightens and he opens the way for a better understanding." Robert Henri
Our ability to elicit a reaction in our audience - to cause them to spend any degree of time outside and away from where they normally reside - that is enough. It does not have to be a choreographed or strictly navigated response.
Our purpose becomes to disturb the natural order of thought, perception and order.
To experiment, explore and play and to encourage that mindful exploration in others.
What fun!
What reaction do you want to tease out of your audience?
