Everything is a mirror.
Your parents, homeless people, the people you love, the people that challenge you.
Looking in a mirror can be painful. You see new wrinkles, old disproportions, blemishes.
As are all things, art is a mirror.
Art is a wonderful mirror, because it's a mirror that is beautiful. Looking into that mirror might be painful, but the beauty that's there will help get you to the other side. To truth. To acceptance.
__________________________
Art is not an end, but a beginning.
The great truth is that everything is beautiful. That truth is beautiful.
Art is simply an opportunity.
A safe place to practice looking into the mirror, to be present with truth, and to learn.
Danny Meyer
