WHAT IS ART? ETHAN MATHEWS
I think art is people expressing themselves, you know, through whatever medium they feel is the most applicable to who they are, I guess, and what they believe in.

I’d say it’s a way of describing, like, your perception of the world, I guess, and that’s my eyes. So however I see something, I mean if I’m going to draw it out, paint it out, whatever. Do you create art? I like to draw and paint a lot.

Art is a way that an individual expresses himself through any kind of form — whether it’s music, drawing, or just any sort of expressionism. Do you enjoy art? Yes, I personally express myself through music. What kind of music? I write raps. So hip-hop a little bit.

I think it’s hard to define just in one term because it kind of depends on who you are and what you see as art. Like architecture — some people might look at it as just a building. But someone else might look at the structure of it and why someone built those bubbly things up there, or whatever.

It’s whatever you interpret it as. Everyone sees it differently, so it’s what you make of it. As a tattoo artist, do you believe what you do is art? Yes, it’s like, you know how Van Gogh and all them had their canvases? Well, I think that 50 years, 100 years from now our art is going to be in books.
