do not approach all art as a morality play. the art isn& #39;t a bible lesson. it& #39;s art. it is unto itself. you will be disappointed and have a frustrated stunted relationship with art if you think it all needs moral lessons. especially moral lessons that line up with your own.
sometimes art is ugly and messy sometimes art depicts things without moral value and you as the viewer arent suppost to draw a deep lesson from every piece. there& #39;s no prize, you don& #39;t win at being "right" art is an experience. you are supposed to experience it.
it also hurts me that any time someone makes something WITH an amoral part frequently we feel the need to put disclaimers like "i dont condone this" on the art. i think that the audience needs to sit with being uncomfortable sometimes and process their thoughts inside.
it ends up feeling like the type of scolding parent standing over your shoulder demanding you only watch say "veggie tales" over and over because it& #39;s moral (to the parent) , even though you are 27 and are well beyond this level of entertainment.
LOL I WAS GONNA PUT A DISCLAIMER AT THE END HERE but i think i& #39;ll just sit with what i said and think on it. like an artist.
also if an artist depicts an amoral (to you) act, it does not mean that the artist is the same as the things they depict. is every horror writer who writes a bleak or terrible ending an evil person who condones all the actions of their characters? no??
if i have to make art that is only moral i would make nothing, because my morality isn& #39;t even universal. how could i make something that everyone would say is "good and right" we dont even agree on soda brands guys. come on. this is a stifling hurtful way of thinking.
