What is Art?

Art is the product or process of deliberately arranging items- often with symbolic significance- in a way that influences and affects one or more of the senses, emotions, and intellect. For instance, one of my drawings show up a bending tree which bends as a human by the heavy weight of the trashes, stands on the trash, and surrounds by dead nature. It represents pollution by trash kills our nature, people, and our living places as a result. I concern natural pollution problems seriously and I want to be left strong impression about it to warn people who throw trash everywhere. Art encompasses a diverse range of human activities, creation, modes of expression through the music, literature, film, photography, sculpture, and paintings (Drawing, painting, and making is not the only way to express the art). I used drawing method by symbolic picture to influence people’s thoughts but I also can we writing or a photograph to shows the purpose of my subject like to write about the percentage of the pollution by people and the effects of the pollution. It is lack of the idea to shows purpose to think drawing, painting, playing music, and making is only art.

Art from the past was not variety as much as today. Art materials such as canvas and paints were very expensive, and there are limitations of drawings by people’s view based on a background such as religious and war (some of the country did not give freedom of the art). Many artists followed traditional ways of art like drawing a picture on a canvas, use traditional literature words, and hear the classical music. Therefore, the definition of art was not well established in the past by the matrix.
Our art is change over the time by the invention of technical products such as computer and camera by some scientists. Unlike an old century, present people have freedom in the art and can enjoy varieties of new arts of technical products like make a video about own performance, use media to post videos, and songs, and pictures, and use photoshop create new pictures. Additionally, we can enjoy more than one art at the same time and mix art. For one thing, artist listening the music while drawing the picture. Definition of art is more stable to people and will apply in the modern society.
