My theory states that the unconscious is something very deep. We as individuals do not understand what is all going on in our unconscious. We can uncover parts of ourselves that we may not have known about‚ but we will never be able to know or understand everything about ourselves.

There is no universally accepted definition of art. Although commonly used to describe something of beauty‚ or a skill which produces an aesthetic result‚ there is no clear line in principle between (say) a unique piece of handmade sculpture‚ and a mass-produced but visually attractive item. We might say that art requires thought - some kind of creative impulse - but this raises more questions: for example‚ how much thought is required? If someone flings paint at a canvas‚ hoping by this action to
