CRAFT OR ART: PICK ONE

Posted by: Benjamin Onuorah


All art contains elements of craft.
All crafts contain elements art.
You may describe craft as the technical process of creativity.
You may define art as the intellectual and imaginative aspect of creativity.
If the craft or technical content outweighs the intellectual conceptualization, the finished work looks immediately showy but it is lacking in depth.
If the intellectual aspect is bereft of adequate technical proficiency, the finished work looks unfinished and uninviting.
When the intellectual input and the technical process find a balance in a work of art, the result elevates both the artist and the audience.
The artist is the wonderworker that doctors and heals the heart and head of the community.
A community that bans, cuts, or underrates art will need to train more psychiatrists to medicate the people with drugs, as the society succumbs to mass mental health impairments.
Make and promote more art, and you need less soldiers and police.
Forbid art, and you need to invest in war arsenal and massive policing.


Professor Moyo Okediji
