Art and the Human Condition


The human condition is that we are a group of beings that ask the same questions of the world (Why are we here? What is the meaning of life?) and are all subject to the same basic biological rules. (birth, aging, death, hunger, thirst, etc.) This is portrayed through art in the paintings, sculptures, movies, buildings and many other items that humans create. Anything the reflects feelings, poses a question, or shows the need for creature comforts (such as decorated sheets, curtains in homes, the plates we eat off of) is a product of the human condition.
