Conclusion

“This place is a home, it’s a landscape, and it’s safe to stay in. But this place can’t be driven to, and it doesn’t have an address. You’ll find this place somewhere inside your mind, and you’ll know when you’ve been there. This is your place of escape.”

People are creative at heart, and one amazing part of creativity is the fact that no matter what sex, race, or age one might be, art and music are two creative places you can always go to relieve yourself of whatever problems you’re having or whatever joy you’re feeling - they’re an opportunity to posses total freedom. Because of these reasons and many more, people have created art and music for all time, but understanding why people today are still doing it today lies in this very subject - places of escape.
Through examining different artists and musicians and how they escape individually, we were able to come up with a commonality between all of their escapes. Each person, although escaping in a different way, eventually makes a leap from everyday consciousness to an alternate form of consciousness. When there, they all experience different feelings, but the similarity between them is that in some way, that escape helps them cope with the normal side of life, and this is what keeps bringing them back to that escape consistently.
