They believe that it’s incredibly serious and important, which, in turn, leads to them feeling overwhelmed with the very idea of digging deeper into it.That, however, isn’t true.

Art, according to the expert, can feel intimidating for some individuals because there’s an element ofsubjectivityto it that’s not found in subjects like, for example, math. A good way to get more people into art and art history is to democratize it: the subjects should be made accessible to individuals, no matter their background.That, in turn, should make the subjects less scary and ephemeral. The point is to discuss and create art, not to be ‘right’ with your opinions. It’s about self-expression, emotions, and opinions.
