Musicians deserve more respect
In a world where music is the most widely available art form, where intricate, delicately (*coughs*) designed melodies affect our mind, our behaviour, our thoughts - musicians stay up at night drinking their 3rd cup of coffee trying to make an original song. That's not only problem they face.

LGBT art: What does it mean for me?
The LGBT Community has come a very long way since the British LGBT movement began in the early 1970s, and it's only been within the past 5 years that we've seen a sudden change in attitudes towards homosexuality and same-sex relationships. So how does this affect me as a gay artist?

Can Visual Art Defy Society?
I know for certain that the power of the arts can rebel against the world in a variety of different ways. For instance, art in the 1990s was used to present "broken" or "grotesque" imagery which at the time reflected the economic struggles and the dissatisfied and rebellious youth at that time. But what about today in 2016? Does art of our time need to completely change our current state, or will it only encourage our demise?
