Art and Economic Regeneration

There is a common sense notion and indeed something that is enforced in everyday life which is that work ought to be separated from culture and art. Something that a recent comment here reiterated, it went something like this:- if you like to be creative and do creative stuff, then do it in your own time.

It is actually a well known and proven fact ( and I do have references for this) - although kept secret at the same time, that the main ingredient in economic regeneration is art and art exhibitions.

So I am doing more than being responsible for myself in my own life by pursuing art ( even though it is a massive financial strain and burden), I am taking responsibility for everyone, I am doing it for the love of humanity and for the sake of our regeneration.

Maybe one day I will go into more detail about that and what inspired me to embark on art and craft in the first place, the visions, theories and concepts that lies behind it, and also what has kept and keeps me going. Thus far of course.
