Post a short response to these Questions:
O. What does Art mean?
Art is, in simplest terms, an expression of emotions, conflicts, views and so much more. Whether it be through dance, painting, writing, or film (and so many more), art can mean different things for each person. It can help express strong emotions, or show views about situations in society or just entertain.
1. What is your favorite art form?
My favorite art form is dance because the way a person can embody emotions (most of the time without any dialogue) makes it all the more powerful for me.
2. What is your favorite historical period?
While sort of random, my favorite historical period is the Tang Dynasty in China. After watching a show exhibiting the traditional dances from the dynasty, I was awed by the grace and simplicity and yet how powerful each dance was.
3. What is your academic/ non-academic strength?
My academic strength is history and I would like my non-academic strength to be singing but it hasn’t worked out yet.
4. Do you feel comfortable with new technologies?
Once I learn how to use them properly, I am comfortable with new technologies and most of the time, I like learning how to use new things.
5. How would you rate your writing skills?
I would rate my writing skills 8/10. I am satisfactory but there is definitely room to improve.
Dear Simmi,
Remember to look at dancers statues at the Metropolitan museum in the Asian wing. You will find a few from your chosen period.
