Value of Artistic Expression

12/27/2012

Energy is the essence of life. Every day you decide how you're going to use it by knowing what you want and what it takes to reach that goal, and by maintaining focus.
Oprah Winfrey

"Artistic expression is a demonstration of the human's ability to create. In multiple trials and attempts, one can discover, learn and experience, achieving knowledge of diverse elements of oneself that will contribute in an affirmation of identity and in the discovery of one's own potential. "This is the view of Roxana Salazar and Maria Carmen Schulze expressed in their World Forum book, Modeling with Children under Six Years Old. They continue...

"In diverse activities of expression, a child can practice different paths of artistic execution. They begin to know themselves by trying to transform reality in a permanent dialogue between their imagination and what is real. When the child gives form to the clay, the child meets with their emotions and their spirituality, which brings awareness and knowledge, through the forms, volumes, and movement that the child expresses in the creation."
