Artivism

Artivism involves using art as a tool to not only
comment on needed societal changes but also to inform others on these pressing issues and inspire them to take action. An example of an artivist is Kusama who held art happenings where she ministered over the first weddings between gay men in the USA. Goldsworthy is another artist who uses eco art that inspires mindfulness of our natural surroundings (healing art) but crosses over into artivism in that it serves as a catalyst for nature preservation.
Mele Murals is artivism that combines street/graffiti mural art with raising awareness of and preserving Native Hawaiian culture.

artifex pereo

The direct translation is “An artist dies in me”. Derived from Emperor Nero’s last words “Qualis artifex pereo” which has been debated to connotatively mean “As what kind of an artist do I perish” rather than the textbook version “The world has lost an artist in me” due to his humble use of “qualis” and the fact that he had to help build his own tomb before his death just like an ordinary “artisan/craftsman”.
As Vincent Van Gogh painted his last work “Wheatfield with Crows”, he sighed to himself deeply: “Artifex pereo... It seems that only my art will live on after my death.”
