Alfred Kubin believed that art was a reflection of the times in which it was created and that it had the power to challenge and change those times. Kubin once said, "The purpose of art is to disturb the comfortable and comfort the disturbed," and he saw his own work as a way to confront the horrors of the world and explore the darkness within himself.
Kubin saw himself as a transmitter of emotions rather than a mere craftsman, and his drawings often depicted the unsettling and the grotesque. Despite his focus on the dark side, Kubin also believed that art could help us find meaning and purpose in our lives. As he once said, "I believe that art can help us to better understand the complexities of the human experience."
