Why art?

To understand why art is important, take a trip to the bottom of the Grand Canyon, stay there for a day or two, then walk out. Unbeknowst to you, while camping beside the rushing water, the white noise of the Colorado cleanses the filters you didn't know had clogged your hearing. Walking up, away from the sound of the river, the quiet is no longer quiet. At each step, crunching of sand and gravel underfoot develops color, overtones, depth, and duration. What had wasted away, has come alive.

That is why art. Art cleanses filters. It reminds us, if only for a moment, that we are alive. Put value on that.
