ART IS LIFE.....I VALUE MY CULTURE...

in #art7 years ago

In my previous posts have been able to define culture as total way of life of people. This way of human life differs from one country to the other.

The difference ranges from the way we eat, the type of food we eat, our mode of dressing and the type of cloth we wear.This way of life is not limited to all these but also related to the way we relate with people in our environment and viciniry..Showing love and affection is a great aspect of my own culture and this makes me addicted to it more.
However, I shall be discussing on another aspect of my culture today which is directed towards creativity and beautifying our environment...

CLAY AND IRON WORK IN CREATIVITY.

I went on a field trip in order to enlighten my fellow steemians on this aspect of my culture to the Department Of Fine and Applied Art, Faculty Of Pure and Applied Science of Ladoke Akintola University Of Technology, Nigeria yesterday to make some research on how some statues were made using mixture of clay and cement with Iron as well.
This is a tedious job that requires a great and luxurious of time.
However, despite this disadvantages, it beautifies and look attractive to optics...
