bohemian culture

Bohemian culture refers to a lifestyle characterized by artistic expression, unconventionality, and a disregard for societal norms. Originating in the 19th century, particularly among artists, writers, and musicians in Paris, it embodies values such as creativity, free-spiritedness, and a pursuit of personal freedom. Bohemians often prioritize experience over material wealth, embracing a communal and often nomadic way of living. This culture celebrates individuality and artistic innovation, leading to significant contributions to literature, art, and music. Today, "bohemian" often denotes a laid-back, eclectic style and worldview, reflecting a blend of creativity and nonconformity.
