About this Quote

In this quote, Jackson Pollock, a prominent modern-day artist, highlights the significance of expressing one's inner world through art. He believes that the role of the contemporary artist is not simply to create visually pleasing works, however to take advantage of their inner self and communicate their ideas, feelings, and experiences through their art. By doing so, the artist has the ability to record the energy, motion, and other inner forces that drive them. This allows for a much deeper and more individual connection between the artist and the viewer, as the art becomes a reflection of the artist's inner world. Pollock's words highlight the power of art to convey the complexities of the human experience and the value of self-expression in the imaginative procedure.
