art

00:00:01.420 --> 00:00:08.040
When we hear that word some of our minds jump to museums or framed paintings and in that context

00:00:08.069 --> 00:00:14.159
Some people think, now i'm not a, big fan of art i just don't get it or they think of art as something

00:00:14.160 --> 00:00:15.400
that's just for

00:00:15.400 --> 00:00:23.010
Intellectuals or artsy, people but really art is for anyone, who, wants to experience it and it's often in more places than, we might realize

00:00:23.619 --> 00:00:31.499
Songs you like movies you watch poems theater even a quilt that your grandmother made all of that and more is art

00:00:32.469 --> 00:00:38.609
So you might be wondering, well then what is art how, do i define it? Well that's tough

00:00:39.370 --> 00:00:44.759
arts been around for thousands of years and through the, ages it's evolved in a number of different ways and

00:00:45.010 --> 00:00:51.390
The reasons for creating it vary from person to person depending on any number of factors so defining art

00:00:51.390 --> 00:00:56.910
Is pretty tricky and it's something that's been debated throughout history, there just isn't one agreed-upon definition

00:00:57.640 --> 00:01:01.529
However many believe that art is anything that stirs emotion in you

00:01:02.230 --> 00:01:08.879
Now the emotions that get stirred up depend entirely on your own history your story everything that comes together to make up

00:01:08.880 --> 00:01:15.810
Who, you are and because of this three different people can, experience the same piece of art and have wildly different reactions to it

00:01:16.360 --> 00:01:19.049
One person might think it's the most beautiful thing they've ever seen

00:01:19.570 --> 00:01:24.239
The second person might hate it and the third might not feel much of anything at all and

00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:26.979
None of them would be wrong?

00:01:26.979 --> 00:01:31.289
Everyone's entitled to their, own preferences and feelings when it comes to art you know

00:01:31.290 --> 00:01:35.849
The, way you feel, about your favorite song could, be the same, way that someone else feels about

00:01:35.850 --> 00:01:39.869
Their favorite sculpture and even though you might not like that sculpture it can

00:01:39.869 --> 00:01:46.739
Be valuable to consider, why, that person enjoys it so much you, may learn something, about them and maybe even yourself

00:01:48.130 --> 00:01:53.280
The term arts is really just a label over the years a lot of people have tried to classify

00:01:53.470 --> 00:01:58.739
What it is or what it isn't but, that's not really what art is about it's about?

00:01:58.740 --> 00:02:05.729
Your personal experience with it and the meaning that you draw, from it everyone reacts to art differently and has the potential to grow

00:02:05.729 --> 00:02:07.300
And learn from it

00:02:07.300 --> 00:02:10.510
Gives us the opportunity to tell stories record history

00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:15.579
And tap into our emotions in a way that few other things can

00:02:19.550 --> 00:02:22.869
