Performative art: Is it realistic?
Art has long served as a medium for expressing ideas, emotions, and stories. With more artists seeking notoriety and visibility, performative art has become a vehicle for artists to be more immersive in pop culture and seek trend domination on social media.

Unlike static forms of art, such as paintings or sculptures, performative art unfolds in real-time, engaging viewers through a combination of actions, gestures, sounds, and sometimes even audience participation. This multidimensional approach blurs the lines between the artist, the artwork, and the spectator, fostering a sense of immediacy and intimacy.
