BYOStory is a project of young Polish artists (more on www.byostory.com) that interfere in the city space, connecting places with people's memories. I was coming back from the train station and trying to find shelter from the rain- I went to the art gallery. Two interesting exhibitions- one with the works of local artists (many of them are my teachers, so it's doubly interesting!) and another with the title "Lost in translation"- story told piece by piece by people from different countries, written in different languages and illustrated with different pictures, photos, drawings, paintings, collages.
One thing came to me after this meeting with art- art is about human, it can't exist without us. Nature doesn't need us but for art we are necessary. And, going further, everyone that finds a talent inside himself, should tend it, water it with own stories, experiences. Artists make a huge mistake by trying to surprise with something new. They should show their souls, that's enough to enchant.
I'm kind of "gold minds freak" and I've noticed this one in a magazine: “Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive”. (Howard Thurman)
