Art, as loosely translated, means arrangement or to arrange; thus, could be universally defined as something as was or at some point arranged in some way. It refers to all creative human endeavors and is simply a generic term for any product of the creative impulse, out of which sprang all other human pursuits.
Every individual could be an artist in his or in her own way; for artistry has never been limited in the walls of painting or singing, rather, artistry could be anything. The manner of dressing oneself, or the manner of speaking or even the manner of engaging in affiliations could be seen and considered as a form of art. This is how vast the world of artistry is, this is how enormous the world of artistry could get.
As suggested by the work of Franz Kafka entitled A Hunger Artist, art is simply relative toward time; and that art is greatly influenced by how the society change and develop through time. That in any moment the art that is seemed to be practiced and appreciated by the majority, the form of art that is in trend could just condense if a new and a better one comes along. But as art, as perceived to be a form of expressing the self and the expression of beliefs, judging an art is never that easy for art has always and will always be subjective, thus judging it objectively isn't fair. This would mean that a literary art would never be better than military art or vice versa. Like a theory, it could not be judge through its truthfulness, but through its functionality. As it is for art, an art that expresses more of himself is more praise worthy than those form of art that delimits himself for the sake of conforming to the laws imposed upon by the demanding society we are all in. Consequently, the art that simply lives to conform isn't art at all for it defeats its very purpose, and that purpose is to express the self.
