Idea No. 53 Authenticity


Authenticity has to do with how genuine a piece is. Whether or not something can be truly authentic is debatable, because it is hard to create a piece that is not influenced by any other artist. It can also relate to how genuinely it represents what it is portraying.

As an artist I am always browsing books or the Internet to spark inspiration. I have a hard time being “authentic” in the sense that I am not influenced by past artists or current ideas. I have a created a couple artworks in the past that truly where my own. In future artworks I want to use my own inspirations instead of searching for one.
