An interesting concept

Art is the craft of being human.

I really relate to this, but others don't as they seem to see art and craft as two very different things with art being more lofty than craft, which is mearly the ability to do something competantly. For me it goes to the heart of what art is, it is the crafting of non verbal means of sharing a concept, although I do think words can be art too, a beautifully crafted sentence is a thing of beauty.

What do you all think?

  • I think the two can mix together. 

    when making cards it's known as a 'craft' activity but there is an element of art in it, as you have to make what you're putting on it work together

    same with building a structure it's known as 'art' but there's an element of craft when you're building it
