Imitation of original form.

First of let me define in which way i would like to use the word "imitation". Imitation in this blog will mean: attempt to copy and recreate and original form.

When workers, artisans, and regular people try to imitate original form, to make life more manageable. Our point of view on this matter is quite ironic frankly. We talk about original forms, and how we try to imitate them. We are original forms too, de facto.
If we stand on the same level as the objects we re trying to imitate(as does brother with a brother).
hence our imitations are not up to level with original form. we cannot create things equal to us (according to Plato's Utopia).

Art is a little more but mere a copy of artisans work. it includes given perspective to an existing form, it may be imperfect, but it evokes certain emotion, and feelings. it gives us a way to see how other people perceive this world.

1. Perfection in art, is it an abstract concept?
2. How can we (human race) be imitated?
