Equal Exchange 21 Print

I began to question whether the personal experiences of pursuing art while juggling a side job could generate an equivalent economic value when the materials used to earn money find their way into the realm of art. The concept of "equal exchange" refers to the exchange of two items of equal value, and it made me start to pay attention to the point where materials used in the field of labor transition into artistic materials in the art domain. I hope to contemplate whether a change in function also results in a change in value, what value my creations made in this way hold, and further, whether these creations can have intrinsic value in their existence itself.
