There are as many different forms of art as there are different forms of media and genre. Whether your a writer, a drawer, a painter, a sculptor, an actor (voice or physical), or even a singer we may not know much about art but we know what we like, and what we like often tells a story however minor. Not all art is storytelling but all storytelling is in some sense art. Just some of it is terrible.
In this article by Deacon Lawrence Klimecki, posted to The Way Of Beauty, we see how art brings us closer to God but also how it makes the creative a sort of god as well. After all, we storytellers are creating a form of reality and bringing it to life. Obviously a deacon is going to look at it through the lens of Christianity but it’s still an interesting look into art and why we need it in our lives as part of our culture even if we don’t appear to need it to survive. It’s why good storytelling matters.
