To capture movement, to take time into custody, to take us away from life’s anguish and suffering, to hold beauty and fix it in a tangible reality, either by writing a thought and translating it into a canvas of words, or by painting a world beyond this world that can transport us away from human pain, or by taking and detaining realities into a photo frame that repairs what is broken in our souls giving us new pair of eyes to look at things from an artistic vision; this is the healing powers of art, for whoever fails to see splendor around him will grow old…
Art is still life when imprisoned but once we gaze into it and inhale its spirit it comes back to motion again because it moves our inner world and runs through our mind’s corridors…
Every work of art is poetry whether silent or noisy, it hits our ears and add value and depth to our existence, it is an extra dimension we can shelter within its colors and schemes and tunes, it serves to be our comfort zone, our mysterious garden that we escape to when reality is just too bitter and too cruel to bear with… it is the magical dust spread upon our beings to awaken our need for beauty and enchantment.
Artists are the makers of history; they influence the mass and can change the course of time, they are immortals in a world of mortality, they live forever even after they are physically gone, their masterpieces are eternal monuments.
Art transcends our presence from mere humans to spiritual beings, it is our passport to the realms of the unseen and imagination; we are transformed through flair and flamboyance of a work of genius.
Whoever has the taste for arts will have the elixir of knowledge and youth in his grasp; it is advised to stay away and be cautious from those who do not appreciate or love arts for they lose their human side and they are a threat to humanity and sympathy.
What is more majestic than hearing an angelic tune or a demonic tune that can make us revolt to any challenge to may face by dancing it away , music tickles the soul and submerge it into a sea of pleasure and delights.
What is more divine than seeing a painting that can touch you in places you did not even know it existed in you by making you leave your place while in your place still, where you can meet the painter through the colors and patterns of the canvas.
What is more uplifting than reading a poem that draws the universe with words who can be food for our brain and serve as a guide in our journey of life.
What is more eye candy than going through images of a lyrical photography that catches with the lenses of a camera elusive moments and has the ability to stop time in a frame of art.
To watch a good movie and live within its scenes is a true enjoyment and refreshing of the heart.
Arts will always be our departure from the maze of life and hurt, it is the confirmation of a divine breath within us and it is the exorcist of any demonic devilish endeavor in a human being, so when life gets unbearable for you, just indulge in your favorite artistic world and sail away....
