People turn to paintings, music, movies, stories, poetry, and anything as a means to escape the things they can’t control. Creating and being a spectator of art gives us hope.. It ‘s a mirror to society. When the world feels unjust and wrong art gives us the ultimate freedom to push back. Art speaks volumes than literal, singular voices. "
