There is a very thin line between art and design, although they look alike for an individual looking from the outside, they are actually completely different, and crossing that very fine line can sometimes be more difficult than it seems.

Many aspiring artists, who were not privileged and born outside the "first world" like myself, had to spend years, in the dark world of graphic design and advertising. Clients who think they know everything, revisions, endless working hours, low wages and exploitation are indispensable descriptions of a common story that has been going on for years.

Especially when designing a logo, many young aspiring artists come up with original ideas in which they add their artistic identity in their logo proposals. And after receiving feedbacks over time, they start to survive by eroding their creativity and satisfy their clients with boring designs. Learned helplessness.

Even though artists know how this business works, they sometimes include their original proposals that they think have artistic value, in the hope that they will be chosen among the suggestions they make. These are not often chosen and they throw aside by the client, but they are always waiting to be used somewhere in an artist's heart.

Now is the time for rejected logos to come back from the design hell and meet with the art.
