Art has its own language, like music. One can listen to a song in foreign language, not understand the lyrics and yet enjoy the tunes and rhythms. I can tell you what kind of light or colour in the sky inspired me while creating certain artwork, but I cannot tell you why I expressed that inspiration on a blank canvas in this way and not in some other way. It is less about “understanding” and more about “feeling” Unlike narrative art, here the viewer can relate with a painting on basis of what the artist says about it or interpret it in his own way. That way an abstract artwork is more personal than narrative or representational art.
