Ask anyone what art means and you’ll be amazed by the sheer diversity of answers. For some people art is the soul’s expression, for some it’s the universe itself, for others it’s life.

Art can be personal. Art can be global. It can be as individualistic as it is collective, as witnessed with the rise of NFTs where the focus is on the community built around the art.

We reached out to our community to ask them what is MunchiesNFT and the answers we’ve received are amazingly profound. Check out some of the best responses shared by the MunchiesNFT community.

Art is Life. Art is Breathing. Art is Necessary.

Artists who spend their entire lives creating art see it as fundamental to their existence as breathing. We’ve seen this in many artists of the past, including legends like Van Gogh who’s art helped him find some moments of sanity in an asylum.

Art is breathing.
Art is felt.

Art is Feeling.

You cannot attempt to rationalize art. When an artist gets down to painting, he/she doesn’t think from the mind, but expresses the emotions of his soul. This is why when you’re observing a painting, you tend to feel the work more than thinking about the technique. And yes, you also end up feeling connected to the work.

Art is the Universe.

Art is everything within us, around us, and beyond us.

Art is the universe we hold within us

Art is Peace.

Clearly, humans don’t settle well with peace, but in contrast, humans producing art find peace in themselves, allowing for others to find peace in the work. Strange don’t you say?

Finding peace in art

Art is Expression.

One of the most common responses we got was art as a form of expression expressed differently by different people.

Art is perception
Expression of the mind
Art is an expression

MunchiesNFT Embodies All These Definitions

When we started the MunchiesNFT journey, we embraced all these definitions of art. This is one reason how we’ve been able to create art pieces that fuses expressions and thoughts of legendary artists into a single frame.

We defied NFT norms with the launch of a project that made it possible for anyone to own a Rothko inspired color field or a Van Gogh inspired starry night presented in a food setup.

For us, art is experimentation and defying norms!
