There's No Wrong Answer.

There's always something deeper in life that can not be comprehended. And, sometimes, these deep things may mean something huge for someone and yet be a great loss to another. Being different makes our perspective differ from the next person. Just like a person can see the number 6 and call it number 9, vice versa. If you see things differently, you'll know both people are right.

There's no wrong answer. You are the one looking for the one you thought of. And, this brings us to art. In art, lies are truth, and truth is true. A person may see an art, and it can take them back memory lane of an happening either good or bad. In this same veil, another person who sees the art can only see the beauty that surrounds it. Still, another person who sees the same artwork can read a deep meaning to it. And... just like that. A single art can be seen by different people and mean different things to them. A picture can tell a thousand words.

Although being from a country and particularly a place where artwork isn't seen nor valued, I respect any artwork I see because staring at any artwork makes me see life in a different perspective. Just like the artwork above. To some, it is just a tree, right? Because that's what it is. But, I see beyond that.

In one perspective of the art above, I can say it signifies the world. A balance of white (good) and black (bad). And that this is to remind us that in every good that happens to you, something bad will always occur. It isn't a curse. It is just the way life is. Sometimes life makes us super happy, and other times, we wail endlessly for our loss.

However, I also see this artwork in another way that has to deal with life. Looking closely at the first tree with a dead branch reminds us that there's always a life after death. And also that, a dead tree can also bring life. This is just my way of saying that someone who is bad can also have a little good in them... Or we can say that boy or girl that acts as a nuisance in your street or place of work may also be the one that fate can bring to assist you in an unforeseen condition which reminds us of our attitude towards people(Do not judge people carelessly, especially when you feel you are better than them).

Art has helped a lot in our society. Let's talk about days where technology hasn't surfaced or better still gotten advanced to what we have now. I have heard stories of how messages are passed to one another through the use of cornrows in the midst of wars. Some may see that same cornrow and only see the beauty in it, but to those who know what it holds, they'll surely read a deep meaning to it.

Artwork has its significance in our lives, and they inspire us more than we give credit to. Life draws me to art, and after having a closer look at some artwork, I see that there's always more to them. Each dimension, edges, and stroke of an artwork sends a deep-rooted message.

Art teaches us so much, and the moment we can see these things and put them into practice, we will get to know that there's more to life and humans than we see. Maybe it'll remold our perspective on things.
