art review

The art I would like to review is the Kirby on the second floor of the arts building in the corner near the stairs. Whoever made it, I give the props to. So life like. I was walking along, minding my own business, and then I saw it and nearly yelled. What the hell is Kirby doing here I woulda yelled. But then on closer inspection I found it to be an art piece. It was very well done, most likely made with paper Mache and wire to build the frame. It was well done, and different. You don’t really expect to see a Kirby, alone, in a corner of a building. No art around it, or a story to tell, or any special meaning that I can ascertain from its size, shape, color, position, or environment it is in. It’s really just a Kirby in a corner. It’s not supposed to make you ponder social change or inequality in the world. It’s purely art for the sake of being art and fun to look at it. All the art to make you open your eyes, that’s not art in my opinion, that’s someone’s opinion cleverly disguised to worm into you and influences you. A Kirby, that’s just someone making it to make another person laugh or enjoy. That’s the kind of art you need more of.
