the magic of art is being able to see the world through another person's eyes, even in non-representational art: all the little decisions of what is important to depict in detail, the choices of color, composition, the energy of the marks, and so on is essentially a byproduct of the perspective and the experiences of the person who made it. you get to witness something deeply personal hiding in the artifact beyond just the image itself.
