Craft and art may be inextricably linked

Craft and art are often seen as separate, with art being about intention and craft about the making. However, they may be more intertwined than we realize. Craftsmanship may be an integral part of art, as a high level of craftsmanship is often necessary for a piece to be considered art. The act of creating itself may be the definition of art, blurring the line between craft and art. It may be impossible to separate the two, and they may exist on a spectrum rather than in distinct categories.
