Over art's dead body?

This episode, Teia and Cher illustrate (ha!) that art, in its creation, appreciation, but also destruction, tells us a lot about the ethical and psychological consequences of ‘expressing yourself’ in this day and age. They also chat sh*t about the kinds of art they like, because it’s their podcast, and they make the rules.Teia’s quote of the day: “Good artists exist simply in what they make, and consequently are perfectly uninteresting in what they are.” -Lord Henry WottonThe Picture of Dorian Gray, written by Oscar Wilde.Sources for this episode: Physical Works:Manganiello, Dominic. “Ethics and Aesthetics in ‘The Picture of Dorian Gray.’”The Canadian Journal of Irish Studies 9, no. 2 (1983): 25–33. http://www.jstor.org/stable/25512571.Wilde, Oscar.
