“I feel it's my social responsibility to shine a light on areas that don't get seen. My personal feeling is that it's an artist's responsibility to be engaged with the culture. And when the culture is going through turmoil, I think an artist can't ignore that. I don't feel that every artist has to be politically engaged, but I can't imagine that you can be an active participant of this culture and not in some way reflect that in the work you are creating.” ThinkingWayFeelsI CanFeelingsLightArtistCultureSocialResponsibilityImagineCreatingAreasShiningActiveEngagedImagine ThatSocial ResponsibilityTurmoilParticipantsPersonal Feelings Author:Lynn Nottage
