People today have lost interest in art and fail to see the qualities it holds. Artists put their mind into their work, as well as time. It takes a lot to create something great. Art can be seen in many different forms and in different places; it’s different for everyone.
It could be the way snow looks as it falls to the ground during Winter, or the actions of the student murals throughout the school.
Art comes in different forms and expression. Many people see dancing as an art itself because of its movements, colors, and stories it can tell. Dancing can express a hidden emotion or simply entertain the audience. Throughout the world, dance shows the history of diverse cultures and their style that makes it their own.
One of the most trending articles in the culture section of the BBC website is The World’s Best Staircases. Although one may think it’s not art, each staircase has its own different design, shape, pattern, and material that makes each one beautiful and unique, be it in a famous building like the Mayan pyramids, castles, or in an old house that shows its history.
Did you ever think that fashion was art too? With the outfits designers are creating today it might as well be. Famous designers like Alexander Mcqueen create runway outfits that are based off of animals and nature, crazy themes, giving them exuberant colors and fabrics that make them stand out.

If someone passes an old and run down building, they would most likely think nothing of it, but such things hold great history and stories as well. Old opera theaters throughout the world have classic and timely designs that are not seen anymore in modern-day theaters. This also includes hotels, asylums, prisons, Victorian houses, and everything else. Imagine a brown and rusting old house with bright green plants and flowers growing over it. That, as well, is art.
Not to forget, there are still the qualities of art that are created by people. It all takes time, effort, enthusiasm, and talent to create something great, and people these days seem to forget that.
