Art is an expression, a diverse human range activity where one can exercise world-class talents not limiting to visual appreciation – painting, sculpture, drawing, printmaking, ceramics, photography, filmmaking, design, crafts, and many more.
It is indeed everywhere.
Artists play a very huge role in challenging the impact when it comes to politics. We know that art creates such a bang because it conveys messages directly for us to interpret and the message itself is the form already, of what ever it is and how it was made.
