What does it mean to "go crazy"? Historically, artists were often seen as symbols of eccentricity and unconventional thinking. However, with the rise of internet culture and growing societal emphasis on mental health, a shift has occurred: public displays of "madness" are becoming more prevalent, while artists themselves appear increasingly reserved—even adopting middle-class lifestyles. This phenomenon raises a fascinating question: "Why, in an era where nearly everyone can 'act out' online, are artists less crazy than before?"
This discussion explores not only how artists perceive themselves and their community but also the role of art in society—how it reflects and challenges the norms of everyday life. By examining this tension, we gain deeper insights into the complex relationship between art and contemporary culture.
