the art of living art

"Nothing is more mysterious for a person who discovers and connects with art, than knowing if they will be able to eat it."

      Art as a tool to live economically from it, is hard work, which leads to developing an immeasurable perseverance, full of inexhaustible patience, and as much discipline as the universe is infinite; although at first glance to the common eye, an artist is just a crazy misfit, rebel against the established rules of a hypocritically traditionalist society.

  And it is then that Carl Orff's fortune begins to turn playing with sanity, invading thoughts of doubt, knocking on the door of faith and hope where fear magically arrives making its star appearance, delivering a letter with the first question ; Will you be able to live on this? and the conscience that lives from the present, responds; "NO". Up to this point, insecurity invades the space of the muse, accompanied by fear of criticism, due to the lack of technique in the work, an anguish is generated that only embitters existence and the essence itself.

      After some time, the discipline becomes a friend of the artist, it teaches him everything necessary to reach the maximum of the technique, years of effort and sacrifice have passed; tears, complaints, laughter, emotions are strengthened and that is when in a brief breath, the Muse shines more than ever, her inspiration has returned, art has become a way of life, both can live in peace, because they know that they will be able to feed themselves safe that they will never be afraid and hungry again.
