The Beauty of Ambiguity: Transforming Art Viewing into a Hobby

In this online talk on contemporary art, Bojana explores how to deepen one’s appreciation for abstract art and transform art viewing into a fulfilling hobby. The discussion emphasizes that enjoying abstract art is less about seeking clear representations and more about engaging with the emotions, colours, and textures that resonate personally. By approaching art with an open mind and allowing oneself to experience the work without the pressure of immediate understanding, viewers can unlock deeper layers of meaning. The talk also highlights how art, especially pieces that feel elusive or challenging, can offer profound spiritual insights—inviting reflection, introspection, and a connection to something beyond the physical world. With patience and a willingness to embrace ambiguity, abstract art can become a gateway to personal growth and a more enriching, mindful life.
