Two of my external senses (taste, smell) are protesting for being discriminated against. :-)
Or phrased a bit more seriously: Can’t some instances of meal creation and/or some forms of fragrance creation be art forms?
- bombcar 4y agoIt does have "such as" - art is clearly something that is designed to be perceived by the senses, and all of them will matter. But art that is tasted or smelled often is art that only exists for a time; and so it doesn't get perhaps as much attention.
