What is art?

This is a question I’ve been thinking about a lot recently. Why is important, and why do we care? 

I’m not a pessimist, like Rousseau: he talks about societies that develop the arts and sciences leads to corruption and moral degradation; when we can really just survive on the bare necessities, right?

I think of art as a verb for expressing something from the soul. The person doing the act decides if it’s art or not by deciding if it’s coming from their soul. 

Hmm but what if they don’t think it's from the soul but someone else feels it in their soul. It would be art to person #2.

So what is the soul I think would help clarify the above. The idea is clearer than trying to verbalize it. Something deeper and profound, closer to subconscious than consciousness. The black box LLM inside our head from where we form consciousness. Something that affects the weights of the model there is art? Idk lol
