I felt that the point Karim made that stated "Consume experiences, not things" spoke to me the most. This is because in my day to day life I see people more worried about surrounding themselves with physical/material objects in an attempt to make themselves happy instead of surrounding themselves with people and memories. To me, it's the people and company that makes a place, not the things that are in it. I think that a much more worthwhile way to live is to not focus so much on material items that in reality matter very little, but to focus on the people in our lives and the experiences we have with them to make us happy.
I can definitely see a correlation between his manifesto and his work. In his manifesto he talks about creating something new that hasn't been done, and how normal is not good. His art is most definitely not normal and his work is something that I have never seen before. It is so creative and unique that it almost blows my mind. I also think that his spirituality informs his art in such a way to make it more unique. I think that his spirituality makes his art more interesting and unique from other artist's work. I can't help but wonder if his art would be a little lacking without the spiritual aspect of his life.
