ahmattoxThu, Apr 2, 2009 When I first went to school they had us write an essay on how we can rationalize investing our lives in art while there are some many horrible things going on in the world. I can't remember what I said, but it is an important question for artists.
I believe art and design have a huge effect on peoples attitudes no matter how much they don't want to admit it. Creating beautiful things must have some effect on the world, especially with regards to architecture and the design carrying the information all of us process every day. Professionally I try to design for people and organizations who have something good to give.
