Blog #2: Art as Language

                       The second group discussed about the classical art, and I can say that they did a really great job! They explained everything we need to know and really got everyone's attention, or maybe because it's about the Greek & Roman art wherein every art is attractive—but still they did a great job! And one particular subject caught my attention. I don't want to stick to the common subject, "the conquered became the conquerors, and the conquerors became the conquered,” rather, I want to ponder on what the reporter discussed about the "Dark Ages" wherein art is the only language the people back then used.


                       Nowadays, some use art just for fun, neglecting its value and taking it for granted while it should be used as language. And that's what I learned about classical art. Feelings are really hard to express that even you yourself find it unfathomable that it's best to express it through art and let them know what your true feelings are and to know for yourself who you really are. Some might think that they already know who they are but until they create an artwork expressing their inner selves, then came the time for them to know who they really are. Even you can try and do this and know for a surety that art is indeed a better notepad of your feelings.

                     Use art as language, just like when you're talking to a very important, famous or "big time" person—with utmost respect. Let's not waste the use of art, instead treasure its use be grateful for it's existence.C
