It's like drawing. Or taking pictures. Or listening to songs.
You can paint with bright and vivid colours, but the drawing can still depict a tragedy. You can take a picture of flowers and sky, but the photo can still represent loneliness. You can humming a cheerful tune, but the lyric can still be expressing pain and desperation.
But the thing with arts is, not everyone would notice it. It's not even close to surprising if no one would notice the subtle hints hidden between the lines, in the slight change of hue or inside the poetic "nonsense".
When applied to daily use of words, I think, to some extent, that is how one would filter listeners or readers based on how much care and thoughts they put in processing one's words. Indeed, they can talk about the skills of language. But still I think that the arts is just out of that kind of worlds. Educated people can have all the certs to boast, but there is no denying the emptiness of feelings.
I haven't even mentioned about the manipulations of expressions, you see. Communication is as different to interaction as seeing to observing, talking to speaking and hearing to listening.
