Something about me

People, the media, often question the importance of art in the modern world. Art when compared to say the sciences or engineering, is questioned as to relevance and importance within the modern world. Art is a branch of philosophy, and is termed aesthetics. Philosophy itself has been marginalised by the current educational system, and it is no wonder then that art has fallen even further into disrepute with regard to relevance. Philosophy deals with Epistemology, or the nature of knowledge, with Ethics which asks what is right and wrong, and whether these concepts are absolute or relative. Add in Political Theory to the mix which asks questions about the structure of society, and we have the areas that interest and drive my art. Art is historically a visual commentary on these issues, but even more, it has been a visual critique on these issues. This is what currently motivates my art. My art is a commentary and a critique, on the issues that drive our society and world forward. I work within the historical context of art and comment on the human condition as delineated through the various strands of philosophical theory. Kristin. more »
