For every generation there is a segment of artworks to help people decipher contem-porary issues and in a way, they help shape the culture of that age. The new generation of artists are influenced by both Eastern and Western culture, they are more reflective, sensitive to social issues, possess a firmer grasp of what they want, and have a greater willingness to express their thoughts and pursue their own goals.
