1 - What is Art for?

What is art, and why do we feel such a strong urge to create it? This program looks at art not as a luxury, but as a basic human need present from birth. Long before we learn social rules or formal training, we hold a natural drive to express ourselves through color, movement, and shape. Art is an open door that belongs to all of us, crossing boundaries of age, culture, and background. Making art brings pure joy, but it also plays a key role in how we connect with others. It acts as a clear bridge for bonding, sharing, and mutual understanding. Through creative work, we can share deep feelings that words cannot always capture. Whether we paint, carve, or build digital works, the creative act links the maker and the viewer in a meaningful, shared moment. In the end, art helps us make sense of our complex world. It gives us a calm space to pause, reflect, ask questions, and bring order to our daily lives.
