I’d say: deeply think if it matters. Does it really matter to you. Does it change its impact?

What does it tell you about you whether it does or does not matter?

It’s art to me. But is it Art capital A?

What have we created?

It's not that complicated, really. The value of Art is human connection. The same basic desire that drives love, belonging, pride, shame, & hate. All of these are diminished as the fraction of a work that we're confident represents human intentionality decreases.
