1. What art form/artwork has changed something in your life? Why account for the experience.
- When I was a child, I love to draw anime faces, cartoon characters and etc. it somehow helps me to
release my stress and ease my sadness. Until now I like to draw things that will make me feel better
though I’m not that good and professional at drawing, but I know that I like it and it helps me feel
better.
2. Does art always have a function? Why? Support your response. Provide your own example.
- Yes, art always have function. Just like what is said on the lesson give, “Functions depends on the
artist who created art, an artist may create art out of self-expression, entertainment, or therapeutic
purpose” the artist itself creates the purpose of his/her work. For example, some artist makes
songs/poems out of nowhere because of they are sad. They want to express their own feelings
through writing. Some artists create artworks for entertainment and therapeutic purposes that can
help people to overcome the stress and sadness they’re experiencing. Art always has a function and
its function is to be an art and help people.
3. If an artwork ceased to have function, will it remain an art? Why?
- Yes, even if an artwork has no longer function it will still remain as art but not functional art. For
example, on a movie we no longer think that it helps or provides what we want to see since there
are other new and better ones but the one who make this art who’s expressing his emotions or
feelings will remain inside the art/film no matter what happen or even some people already don’t
appreciate or no longer likes it. Sometimes we use art to communicate to someone.

TAKE HOME TASK

Look around your house and identify a product of art. In a short bond paper, paste a picture of that product of art in
your household. Trace the beginning of this item and identify what functions it has in history (e.g., a painting of the
last supper in your dining room or a spoon)

A vase is an open container. It can be made from a

number of materials, such as ceramics, glass, non-rusting
metals, such as aluminum, brass, bronze, or stainless steel.
Even wood has been used to make vases, either by using tree
species that naturally resist rot, such as teak, or by applying a
protective coating to conventional wood or plastic. Vases are
often decorated, and they are often used to hold cut flowers.
Vases come in different sizes to support whatever flower it is
holding or keeping in place. Various styles and types of vases
have been developed around the world in different time
periods, such as Chinese ceramics and Native American
pottery. In the pottery of ancient Greece "vase-painting" is the
traditional term covering the famous fine painted pottery,
often with many figures in scenes from Greek mythology. Such
pieces may be referred to as vases regardless of their shape;
most were in fact used for holding or serving liquids, and many
would more naturally becalled cups, jugs and so on. In the
Philippines Vases or the so called “banga” are used for cooking
and storing waters and wines.
