7 TRADITIONAL ARTS AND BENIFITS OF ARTS

 The arts refers to the theory, human application and physical

expression of creativity found in
human cultures and societies through skills and imagination in
order to produce objects, environments and experiences. Major
constituents of the arts include visual
arts (including architecture, ceramics, drawing, filmmaking, pain
ting, photography, and sculpting), literary
arts (including fiction, drama, poetry, and prose), performing
arts (including dance, music, and theatre), and culinary
arts (including cooking, chocolate making and winemaking).
Some art forms combine a visual element with performance
(e.g. cinematography), or artwork with the written word
(e.g. comics). From prehistoric cave paintings to modern-day films,
art serves as a vessel for storytelling and conveying humankind's
relationship with the environment.
