The title for the artwork by a.muse, It Doesn't Have to be Perfect, suggests that striving for perfection is not always the goal. Freedom to explore without fear of failure is important for human evolution. Transcending the limitations of perfection, personal expression can reside in the experimental and offer new possibilities.
