46-Play and Art

Sarah Dahlinger, Kahori Kamiya, Kathy Putnam and Moses Ros discuss how Art can be playful and fun but it also has the power to bring to light profound concepts about life. For many artists, the process of creation is connected to play. For example, the use of color in an artists' work, the sound of music or lack of it, the social interaction that may or may not occur, the memories, and the freedom of play are all part of the process of art making and our own lives. Furthermore, the possibility of inviting the viewer into an artists' work brings richness to the concept of each piece.
