Paintings, photography, aesthetic objects, beautiful communication, and anything I consider to be art, artful, artistic, artsy or whatever.
Art is subjective. It is a quality of communication can be contributed to by the viewer through empathy or agreement with its creator.

I AM DEATH.
WHO TELLS YOU LIES ABOUT ME?
WHO WANTS YOU TO FEAR ME?
THE PRIEST WHO MUST CONTROL THEE.
HE DOES NOT KNOW ME.
HE DIES AS SURELY AS THEE.
DO NOT FEAR ME.
YOU ARE LIFE. YOU ARE FREE.
DEATH IS THE LOSS OF ONE BODY ONLY.
LIFE ENDURES ETERNITY.

Miriam Makeba (4 March 1932 – 10 November 2008), nicknamed Mama Africa, was a Grammy Award winning South African singer and civil rights activist.
In the 1960s she was the first artist from Africa to popularize African music in the U.S. and around the world. She is best known for the song “Pata Pata“, first recorded in 1957 and released in the U.S. in 1967. She recorded and toured with many popular artists, such as Harry Belafonte, Paul Simon, and her former husband Hugh Masekela.
She actively campaigned against the South African system of apartheid. As a result, the South African government revoked her citizenship and right of return. After the end of apartheid she returned home.
