Letter from the Art Selection Committee:
Oscar Wilde said, “No great artist ever sees things as they really are. If he did, he
would cease to be an artist.” Although there is no easy way to define “art” simply,
we have learned that while every other work in this journal evokes different, important
emotions and passion with the use of words, art is beautifully capable of
making us enjoy the same strong excitement, concern or sympathy with one,
single image.
Through the selection process, the art committee was able to build a much
stronger understanding and appreciation for all different kinds of art. We took
the decision about what would be published in this journal very seriously. One of
the things we found the most important while going through the selections was
choosing pieces which made us want to keep looking at them; made us want to
analyze them. We are confident you will love these pieces as much as we do.
