I resist to define art

·          Art is self expression. Art is the expression on people,places and things and should be left to everyone their own definition. The arts communicate on different levels and are open to a number of interpretations. If a person remembers a particular work of art,  and returns to it frequently within their mind, than that same work of art may communicate varied ways of its meaning, endlessly.   What makes art is everything related to the work itself. Any attempt to define this would almost certainly either exclude a significant amount of art or include everything that has, does, will, or could exist. There are so many different types of art. So many different levels. Different people view different things as art so the definition varies from person to person. I think its one of the most complex words within the english language due to the fact that there are endless interpretations of this one word and concept. Defining art would be a task that no one could be able to do due to the fact that they will never be able to set a specific set of conditions that will include every art form within the world, from the Mona Lisa to a tattoo on my best friends arm, art is  something that is in the eye of the beholding ( not to sound cliche or anything). Overall I have decided that I will not define art in any way.
