I'm very neutral towards this. I like the general idea, but it doesn't carry the same kind of flowery description I expect from descriptions of artwork. For example, looking up the Beth Cavener Stichter: Come Undone overview on Claire Oliver Gallery:
In these seductive, large-scale works made from clay, Cavener Stichter cajoles the viewer into looking at the darker side of the human condition by cloaking it in animal skin.
The Artist hopes that by inducing the viewer to acknowledge their own uncomfortable darker side, she can inspire a greater understanding of those disparities that divide our societies today. “The figures are feral and uneasy,” she says, “expressing frustration for the human tendency towards cruelty and lack of understanding. Entangled in their own internal and external struggles, my figures are engaged with the subjects of fear, apathy, violence and powerlessness.”
I think that the format presented here on the site would be significantly more artsy-sounding if it was given this kind of flowery language to describe it.
