It's an exhilarating thing to think about how we translate what we see as in another language. Each artist speaks with a unique voice, a unique history of experiences, a unique genetic make-up, all translated through a chosen medium into a presentation. Then the language gets perceived by an audience of individuals, each with unique experiences and genetic stuff and what comes of it all is response.
The artist becomes a sort of filter through which images and ideas pass as they are being translated into a work. So if each artist is responding uniquely, how can a painting be a cliché?
Have a happy Friday.

This post was quite poetic itself.
