Why do I make Art

I make art to share ideas and thoughts with other people
I make art to discover other ways of connecting the stuff of the world surrounding me
I make art to feel and experience thought processes
I make art to enjoy the way I feel even after I have felt
I make art to experience my own impression of the world around me
I make art to mark stages in my journey
I make art as a poetic body of knowledge that doesn't have to be clear, defined, literal
I make art as I instinctively and naturally make art
I make art as my life reflection and gift to myself
I make art to investigate and research ways of thinking ways of being
I make art to suggest and express an essence of things
I make art out of a simple joy of the materials colours feelings of the things which I use to make art
I make art to manifest an opportunity for community to form around creative working
I make art because it feels to be a significant necessary important imperative activity
I make art to investigate first hand the making of something
I make art to bring another thing into the world
I make art as the way a work of art becomes is such a mysterious process
I make art to experience how the wholeness became manifest
I make art as it is freedom
I make art because art is functional in ways which are challenging to define
I make art because I can
I make art as it holds my interest and wonder and fascination
I make art as it is the closest activity to the true nature of all things
I make art as it can not be solved or known or completed
I make art for the enjoyment of others
I make art because I want to make art
I make art to be different shapes and sizes
I make art to transport myself into another material
I make art to be intimately within the fabric of the world
I make art as I love strategising a system
I make art to freely experience methodology risk process
I make art to experiment
I make art so as to innovate
I make art to find new ways
I make art to discover further where I am and who I am through things outside of me
I make art to project myself externally so that I can view see myself as another
