  1. I’m just 9 weeks old, so I’m stilling hanging out in the cot, pram or playmat, but I believe the purpose of art production is to engage in the public domain a dialogue within a historical narrative framework via memory. Marginalised by market ideology and neo-colonialism, the practice of art offers multiple entry points that challenge disciplinary boundaries of identity, challenge peoples perceptions and ideologies, cumulating in changing society’s cultural paradigms while creating future Zeitgeists. Just some random insights in between bottles, and can’t wait to get into the finger paint. oops! I think i need a nappy change. VOPL

  3. Anything can be art. Art can be anywhere. In your garden, on the street, anywhere. Art is what you think of it. To you it may not be art, but to others it might. A leaf could be art, household items could be art, anything. Find your own art. Make your own art.

  8. art is imagination. If something has imagination it is art. Even the smallest inventions are art because nobody would have thought of them if they didn’t have imagination. Most children see art better than adults do because we think about everything fun and creative were as adults have to be serious and proper. If you feel something when you see it you know it is art because if you feel it you can go into a deep place and become apart of a painting.

  18. You know when you are looking at art when its like saying hi to someone for the first time. When you see a picture you know it is art cause of the feeling you get and the joy of happiness. There are many pictures in the world and you know when one is art cause you can feel it in you soul. You feel good emotions or empty and sadness when you see a painting. You see paintings anywhere but you don’t realise it but it is your mind.
