Understanding the Inconsistent Truth in Creation of a Work of Art According to Derrida

By insisting on the complexities of our particular type of understanding, Jacques Derrida focuses on how and why we do not understand each other. At the same time, most philosophers emphasize how we know each other. Derrida does not deny the truth but believes that we are living in a world with a stable suspension that prevents us from having a complete understanding of its truth. The truth is not only unstable, but it is even more unstable in the works of art. Thus, because of that the reflection of the truth becomes at the highest degree of diversity and instability, it is necessary for the creation of a work of art. Without this instability, the work of art becomes a mathematical formula that everyone can do. This instability and suspension allow the art to be unique and irreplaceable. Accordingly, the primary purpose of this study is to investigate why the audience will never get rid of an active and permanent interpretation of the work of art and how any perception will lead to more instability in understanding. These are the basic principles that any art needs to survive.
