Context is Everything.

In Art Context is everything . It is not enough for an artist to be skillful with craft.  Beautiful craft attracts the eye but Art 'resonates'. All art exists in the social, economic, political, spiritual and intellectual landscape of its time. Art acts as a window of awareness to the environment and time in which the viewer lives. Art that is in tune with context resonates long after the first viewing because the art is alive in everything we see and experience not just the object or image the artist has crafted.
