This is a quotation from one Lana Del Rey's song. The song is called Gods and Monsters, and if you want to hear it you can easily find it on You Tube. In case that you like Lana's music, and you have not heard this song before, you will like it.
Anyways, the song is not the point of my article. I would love to talk about just this one verse from the song.
Life imitates art!
When I think about art, I think about music and about paintings, of course, there are also some other kinds of art, but those two are my first associations.
Whenever I look at any painting, I see a lot of emotions and a lot of dreams on it. Painter is always painting his or her emotions, dreams, desires...
And, almost every single paint is full of emotions. There is not a part of the painting where you can not see emotions, desires, fears...
Also, when you are listen to music, specially to sopngs that are written by the person who is singing, or the compositions that are played by the person who made them, you hear many emotions.
When you are looking to dancers, you also see emotions.
All the time, in all parts of any masterpiece there are many emotions, positive and negative, but always emotions.
Art is never indifferent.
And, unfortunately, life is. Actuallu not life as life, but people, who are living. There are many situations where people are indifferent, when people are not feeling anything, and that is not good. People are empty when they do not feel anything.
We all knwo that art is inspired by life, but not by the whole life, just by some situations, some people, some things. And, those are situations, things and people, who are making artist feel something very strong.
Masterpiece is just one part of artist's life. One very small part. And that small part is full of emotions. Unfortunately, lives of people nowadays are not full of emotions. Actually, not just nowadays, during the whole history, lives of people are not full of emotions. Many time, lives are empty, people are indifferent. That is how people become depressed. You do not become depressed only thanks to bad feelings, you can also become depressed thanks to the lack of feelings.
Life imitates art?
Life isn't that hard!
