Art is magic delivered from the lie of being truth.

Summary

This quote suggests that art has the power to transcend reality and present an alternate, magical world. It implies that art is not bound by the constraints of truth, but rather allows the artist to create their own version of truth. By freeing itself from the limitations of reality, art can express and explore ideas, emotions, and perspectives that may not conform to objective reality, offering a unique and subjective experience to both the creator and the audience.
