He said \u201cI&#8217;ve realized that some of the best artists that have ever walked the earth struggle with some kind of life changing issue, do you think that there is something connected to all of that?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">a question like that wasn\u2019t something i had expected out of him, it kinda was, however in that moment it wasn\u2019t what i was expecting. and it really did get me thinking, was the pain that you experienced something that could enhance the quality of your heart, or was the art you created a reflection of the pain in which you put into the work. there were so many prominent artists of every accord which experienced so much pain, whether it be authors such as hemingway or poe, or painters such as da vinci or hopper. though i think that the form of art in which this is the most prominent is music, elliot smith, kurt cobain, ian curtis, these are all names of people whose suffering was so prominent that it caused their demise, however the beauty of their music serves as something that is a world of a difference. It was a difference that was monumental beyond any accord, but was it because of the things they experienced that caused the influence of their music to be better than it might\u2019ve been? That is, what I wonder about the most. I don\u2019t think I have a finite answer because the art I create come from both premises. <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/miro.medium.com\/v2\/resize:fit:480\/1*YN-UNoGx84Qi6dVMeB6TWw.jpeg\" alt=\"Elliott Smith: \u201cBeen pushed away and I'll never come back\u201d | by Mars Mundy  | Medium\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 i was sitting in Carter\u2019s room last night, fiddling with the guitar that i was first starting to learn how to play when i heard his roommate say something that got me thinking. parker was never one to say many things with much subsistence, not that he didn&#8217;t have the capability to, but because &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/2024\/05\/03\/is-art-pain-or-is-pain-art\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;is art pain or is pain art?&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":90,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19786"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/90"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19786"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19786\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":19792,"href":"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19786\/revisions\/19792"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19786"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=19786"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=19786"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
