What we are is going to be visible in our art, no matter how secular (on the surface) the subject may be.

Madeleine LEngle
About This Quote

Art is a powerful tool with a wide audience. By creating art with a message, we can bring attention to the causes that we care about most. Art is a way of sharing our message with the world, and it helps us to communicate to others who might not understand what we are going through. Art can be very subjective, and often people with different backgrounds will see something in art that they don’t see in everyday life. In this article, we will talk about how art works as a tool for social change, and how it can help us to make the world a better place.
