Simplified Meaning:

Art helps people see the deeper meaning of life. Imagine looking at a painting and feeling happy because it reminds you of a sunny day at the park with your family. That feeling is the painter's way of showing us what joy is. Art can also show sadness, like a sad song that makes you think of a tough time you went through but got stronger from. This way, art helps people connect with different emotions and experiences. When we look at or listen to art, we understand our own feelings and the feelings of others better. This understanding can help us be kinder and make sense of what happens around us.
