by core jr

This article talks about creating and designing and how it comes from ones attitude. This designers artworks is framed as "ugly" pieces, but they do have meaning and may be appealing in their eyes. These designs may represent prejudice from the past and restrictions.

Beauty on the other hand is based on the popular opinion and it lies in the eyes of the "beholder" person and is more predictable of achieving beauty.

The acceptance of and UGLY artwork is now reasonable in design and brings interesting potential when the work that was done has gone through a challenge.

I am very into art and sculpture myself. I like to examine artworks and share what i see in the piece. I never found an art piece to be ugly. I understand that their is meaning for every detail shown.
