What Does Art Mean to You?

🎨 What Does Art Mean to You? — Global Teen Magazine asks four students

Lily Parker, 15: “For me, art is a way to say things I can’t say in words. When I’m stressed, I sketch — usually people on the bus or my cat. I don’t show anyone. I just enjoy drawing because it makes my head quiet.”
Max Turner, 14: “Honestly? I don’t understand most art in galleries. I went to a modern art museum last year, and there was a room with one red line on a white wall. People were staring at it for ages! I prefer street art. It’s free, it’s outside, and you don’t need a degree to understand it.”
Mia Wilson, 15: “Photography. My grandad gave me his old camera, and I want to become a photographer one day. I love taking pictures of ordinary things — hands, shadows, wet streets — and making them look special. A good photo can be more meaningful than a thousand words.”
Ben Taylor, 15: “I’m not creative at all — I can’t even draw a straight line. But I think art is everywhere: in films, in video games, even in football shirts. Somebody had to design those. Without art, everything would look the same.”
