- Just few thoughts about art on the time of socials:
I'm still struggling to make a living doing 2 jobs and I'm finding more and more difficult to find some time to create,
probably like a lot of artist and maybe like you, I'm feeling overwhelmed with all that fast paces social medias, where the packaging is what's matter and not what's inside, where the loudest the controversial is the more visible, where everything is fast for the sake of cheap dopamines.
everything is so frustrating cause I would like to create good stuff but I can't keep the pace,
artists nowdays need to spread thin between create contents and create art to be able to afford to make a living with it,
is a delicate balance between quality and quantity, that once will break you will end up creating mediocre pieces for the sake of the contents,
I'm seeing less and less quality, platform devaluing the artist and pushing dumb bullshit cause they hook the viewer, socials are becoming the new television, propaganda and ads everywhere and I'm just hating it.
Anyway in the end who we are to define what's quality, the audience majority defines it right?
I had enough, cause of this I've been off from social for a while and from now I will start to use more decentralized platforms like this one to post my art and thoughts, freely without pressure!
i don't know maybe you're feeling the same, let me know what's your thoughts about it and maybe we could support each other!
