    • My Appreciation for the Arts
    • Art is lived, and as such, it is needed.


      Each day of our lives is filled with art. The problem is that the kind of arts we know are those that we associate with technology and the formal spaces where we can find them, do them, and experience them. This, however, is a rigid conception of a very fluid activity, experience, and expression.

      The closest art to me is literature. It can be easily owned because it only needs playing with words. I text poetic verses that I compose and send to my friends. I make essays and speeches. That is how easy and close to my life literature is.

      For the visual arts, my digital camera helped me to get involved with photography. I'm no professional but I enjoy taking photos because capturing meaningful events, people, and places is necessary for me.

      Music and cinema are the art forms I enjoy experiencing rather than making. They are common forms of entertainment and if you are not a literary person, you are probably more inclined to listen to music or to watch a film.

      The least art forms I appreciate are the performing arts of dance and theater. For sure, others would also state that the reason for this is because these are art forms that require real talent.
