The Sacred Realm


What is art? This always is a great question, I’ve never have had a sure answer for it but I think art derives from life and it is beyond life.it can be as simple as a stone, or as complicate as the Great Wall of China. Art can be a mature and profound subject and this is also why I am so passionate about it. Art is a wide range of things, which came with the civilization of people. From the beginning of the world, art was part of ancestor’s daily life, was used to sacred ceremonies, to envision, honor and communicate with it. In the sacred realm of the art world, architecture, mural painting and so on are included and people use them to remember things like Worship Ceremony and some other sacred rite. Like the picture (left) that is a Buddha mural, people use it to honor their God and the picture (right top) is a Bahai Temple, “it is a temple and serves a Bahai religion. Is not exactly a religion because is for all people and is open to all the public. This place is reserved for worship this means that is open to all religious and just one is putting together. Here doesn't matter if you are catholic, Islamic etc, is to put together the people." (MARTES, The Sacred Realm "Bahai Temple") and the last one is also a Buddha, which is in China and I think it is considered in the sacred realm of art and it is the biggest Buddha in the world.
