    It's all context. The moment anyone wonders if something is art, it becomes art.

    The Balinese people carve beautiful masks, but have no word for art—because to them, everything already is. At least i read that somewhere.

    • But what is good art is another topic. People seem to confuse bad art with not art on this thread.pango
    • As for that artist who uses other people's Instagram photo. Plagerism can be an art form too. People just condemn that kind of things.pango
    • Fallacy. To them it has a use...whether ritual or religiousmarychain

    • They infuse artistry into everything they do, so why differentiate what is and is not art?BrokenHD
    • No one was talking about usability, but art can be useful. Think: custom car. Boom.BrokenHD
