This chapter explores how artists deal with the fears of being misunderstood, rejected, or ignored by their audience. The author argues that these fears can hinder the creative process and make artists dependent on external validation. He gives examples of how new and innovative art forms are often dismissed or misunderstood by the public, and how artists can cope with this challenge by balancing their experimental work with more conventional ones. He also warns against seeking approval from peers or critics, as this can compromise the integrity and authenticity of one’s work. He advises artists to focus on their own vision and communication with their work, and to trust that the audience will eventually catch up with them. I think this chapter offers valuable insights and advice for artists who struggle with self-doubt and insecurity. It encourages them to be confident and courageous in pursuing their own artistic goals, regardless of the opinions of others.
