As a musician and a writer (neither professionally), I can say that I don't strive for anything in particular in my art. If anything, it is like it is striving for something in me... I'm really not sure if, for instance, when performing a piano work, the music is having a greater impact on me, or if I'm having a greater impact on it. Surely I strive to express myself in my artistic outlets, but there is something else there that comes from somewhere beyond my consciousness.
At a collective level I think that art is the ultimate expression of imagination -- a tangible representation of the experience of man as a vessel of the infinite. It is pure, unadulterated, creation and more exactly represents the human race than anything our biological bodies can provide.
Now I'm not sure if I said anything there either.
My cat's breath smells like cat food.
