Collaboration is key too, I'd love to see Picasso and Monet reincarnated in us, only without the rivalry, we're all buds here! Lastly, I'd want an environment that nurtures growth and skills, like a greenhouse but for artists, where each of us can flourish and bloom into our own unique versions of Van Gogh, minus the ear thing of course!

Furthermore, they both contribute to the identity and unity of the group. In essence, culture is the substance of society, and society is the platform that allows culture to thrive.
