I define art as anything created, performed, or manipulated by someone that insights some sort of reaction in another. I included this image because it is aesthetically pleasing, but it challenges some notions of what art may be: the cloth is fashioned from silk that comes from wild spiders native to Madagascar. I think that the interesting, and rather pertinent, part is that it combines two elements not necessarily considered to be art: silk filament from an insect and textile. However, I think the product can surely be seen as the result of a very skilled and unique artistic endeavor.
