Erica Goode illustrates the research of Dr. Dunning, a professor of psychology at Cornell University. He has been working hard, on trying to prove that people that are not good at something usually believe that they are, while people that are good at something usually believe that they are not. I believe this theory to be true based on my own experience with other working artists at school, including myself. Sometimes its hard to recognize success within yourself even when other people see it. And when someone is bad or unsuccessful at something, it's easier to ignore that and pretend to be content with that bad piece of work. Therefore, ignorance is bliss.
Can bliss be achieved without ignorance?
What sort of ignorance is present in the art world today?
How can we avoid ignorance all together?
