Dearest Human Beings,
A meta-artist is a human being who makes
meta-art in the Name of the Sublime Fashioner.
This reality, this universe, this world, this
nature, these creatures, these actions, etc., all these entities are a Wonderful
and Complex Artwork. The Sublime Fashioner is the only One who has designed
this Artwork.
A meta-artist makes meta-art to remind the human
beings that this Wonderful and Complex Artwork has been designed by the Sublime
Fashioner.
The most important thing for a meta-artist is
her / his intention in her / his action as a meta-artist. Why does she / he
make meta-art and in the Name of Whom? It is the essence of the action of a
meta-artist: her / his intention.
Which media, which techniques, which styles of
art, visual or not, audio or not, computerized or not, etc. all these questions
are not important because everything is possible today. The main question of a meta-artist
is what the value of her / his intention is.
A meta-artist is not seeking fame, glory and
wealth. These attributes belong to the Sublime Fashioner, only.
A meta-artist does not sell meta-art: she / he
gives! She / he does not take! It is a pure voluntary, benevolent action,
without any ulterior motive. A meta-artist has an ascetic life among human
beings. Enjoying a materialistic life and a life of luxury is not her / his way
of life. Doing meta-art is one of her / his actions among human beings. And it
is very good that the meta-artist shares the joy and pain of everyday life of
the human beings by having a professional activity. If the meta-artist is only
a meta-artist, she / he could be dissociated from others by believing that her
/ his world of meta-art is unique and her / his ego is her / his god. Meta-art
is an action among billions of billions of actions. A meta-artist is a dust
among billions of billions of dust.
A meta-artist does not necessarily exhibit her /
his meta-artworks. She / he never forgets that the One who makes her / his
action possible is the Sublime Fashioner. She / he is rewarded according to the
value of her / his intention, and not the price of the meta-artwork or the
quantity of fame or social and official recognition she / he could get from her
/ his meta-artworks. “Emerging artists” and “well-established artists” mean
nothing for a meta-artist. A meta-artist is beyond these two states of emerging
and being established because her / his intention in making meta-art is not to
please the society and to be recognized, but to worship the Sublime
Fashioner.
A meta-artist does not waste resources. Dumps
all over the world are plenty of useful and free materials that could be reused
and recycled to do meta-art. It is why a meta-artwork is always free. The
price, if there is any, is a spiritual price and a mystic value, and it is not
the god-dollar that is able to estimate this spiritual price and this mystic
value, of course not! It is only the heart, the heart of the human beings who
can estimate the spiritual and mystic value of a meta-artwork!
A meta-artist is unknown, not because of fake
modesty, but because she / he never forgets that she / he is nothing in this
world. Doing meta-art is asceticism in order to submit the ego of the
meta-artist to the will of the Sublime Fashioner.
The self-esteem a meta-artist could have for
herself / himself is nothing when compared with the love a meta-artist can express
for the Sublime Fashioner. In return, this meta-love is a gift for others.
Meta-art is a matter of love and peace in the
Name of the Sublime Fashioner.
