However, this isn't to say that a person ignorant of art can't make art. Instead, this person builds up art with their own logic and this leads to some of the most original art. In fact, the most original of anything. Reinventing the wheel.
Also, as I philosophy study I see first hand the difference between deconstructionalists (who defend themselves as students) and actual students. A deconstructionalist will be excited to learn something in order to disprove it instead of to know it. While the student will be mindful of error, deconstructionalists hound for it. Usually it's the people that have the pipe dream of writing something novel or hold so prior prejudice that are ready to deconstruct a philosophy.

i think you can deconstruct something you do not know, it is a way to become familiar with something, deconstructing to find understanding
