ePub Silencing Cinema: Film Censorship around the World (Global Cinema) by From Palgrave Macmillan in Arts-Photography

Description

Are you inspired by the little things; the bits others might overlook? A crack in the sidewalk? The trunk of a fallen tree? Shards of broken pottery? Do you want your artwork to speak to the abstract nature of color; and shape and texture; composition and mood? With Wabi-Sabi Art Workshop; youll learn to use your appreciation for the simple things in life--the ordinary; the aged; the humble--as your inspiration for making expressive; intuitive art. You will come to embrace imperfection and recognize that; yes; in fact; there is such a thing as a happy accident! The wabi-sabi philosophy of art is probably a little different from what youre used to--its a style that finds inspiration and beauty in the imperfect; impermanent and humble nature of everyday objects. And there is a special freedom in wabi-sabis abstract aesthetic; a forgiving approach that celebrates so-called mistakes and fosters an experimental spirit; encouraging you to build up and tear back with abandon.
