Any artist, the work you do, if it's a painting or if it's a performance, you hope it translates to a common denominator with the people that they see something in their own life in there. Or they see something in somebody else's life. That's what's fun about sharing art.

Quote Summary
Matthew McConaughey emphasizes that as an artist, whether through painting or performing, the aim is to create work that resonates with people on a personal level. The joy comes from sharing art and connecting with others who can find elements of their own lives or someone else's in the art.
