One may argue that this has always been true, and to some extent it may well be true, but it stands above contestation that art has become a medium of spiritual communication and much more so than ever before.
Artists are more emotionally intelligent and spiritually aware and aligned, than ever before.
This translates in very, very interesting art being presented. Art is becoming more intelligent, innovative and has the ability to communicate the story of the artist in a real and tangible way.
Art lovers around the globe are being spoiled by a brand new generation of artists who are spiritually connected and aligned, producing amazing pieces. Technology has entered the world of art and this has added yet another dimension to the artists tool box.
Augmented reality is producing “living art” where pieces come alive to draw us into the narrative that was playing out in the artist’s mind as he or she laid the strokes down on their canvas.
The responsibility is now on us to keep up, as we enter a new age of art. To become emotionally intelligent as well, to become spiritually connected, as the artists who are pioneering the way into this new way of art, and to enjoy the journey with them, as we do!
