By using opinionated evidence that is very biased and tech user friendly, Wright creates an unintentional barrier between him and his intended audience.…

    Self-identity is a form of individuality that has been molded by the surroundings people enclose themselves with. Human beings are constantly interpreting who they are.

The traditional ideas of what is considered art should be broadened; granted, although not tangible, art can be seen through ambitions, emotions, and expression through appearances when not limited to the customary definition.…
