To rebel or revolt against the status quo is in the very nature of an artist.

An artist is someone who uses bravery, insight, creativity, and boldness to challenge the status quo. And an artist takes it personally.
If you allow your perceptions to be dominated by a status-quo perspective these thought forms create a network of status-quo mental habit patterns.
I really think it would be cowardly to pull back and not challenge the status quo, when the status quo may not be the right way for the field to go.
When people attempt to rebel against the iron logic of Nature, they come into conflict with the very same principles to which they owe their existence as human beings. Their actions against Nature must lead to their own downfall.
