The idea that we are in fact a part of the creative, process, both visually and conceptually. It is not so much a duty, rather a gift, to exist that way. Despite the dusty grey areas of vogue interpretation, art exists very still, and with the weight of those who claim to be artists, it moves forward or backwards, but will not stay still if they are taking their role with the sobriety it deserves.
To some degree it is necessary to look for yourself in others art, especially when the work in question was created as a reaction or homage to a particular or entire community of people. Its not a case of shunning art of the past, but rather, no one should create unless they feel it is because something is missing from the world. Whether is a vitally large or small comment, it should not be a replication, at its worst it could appear as a reinforcement, but never an imitation, less it stagnate.
