In my case, that is my goal. Absolutely

And that's fine, there's nothing wrong with a good, healthy ego.

But for them to engage in the philosophy of art, they need to
question why
works, other than their own, should be considered profound,
important, unique,
or ineffable enough to be considered fine art.

I'm very broad in my idea of what fine art should be ( since fine
art,to me has no
"should be" Real Identity).
Profound, Important, Ineffable and even unique(though I favor unique)
are words
that take you on a subjective alley, where philosophers meet to
figure out how
give identity to subjectivism.
