kelsey - nature and art
Since God made creation , I believe it is possible to see him through his handiwork, and therefore, even non believers or people who do not know god can still experience him and see him in it. Does this apply to art too? IN the sense that it is possible to learn something you have never heard of or experienced before through a wordless interaction? I know this sounds like what we talk about in class but i think there is a big distinction to seeing and understanding things we have knowledge of verse things completely out of our realms. I kind of feel like it might be possible -the same way C. S. Lewis saw the beauty in his lid garden more so than the real one for example makes me think that it is possible. But, I also think that creation was made directly by god and therefore should be more powerful in demonstrating himself to others. Art, being indirectly made by god, in a sense, made by people with Gods ideas, seems like it would be less awe inspiring.
