Culture

WHAT IS CULTURE?

Culture can be defined as all the ways of life including arts, beliefs and institutions of a population that are passed down from generation to generation. It has been called "the way of life for an entire society." As such, it includes codes of manners, dress, language, religion, rituals, norms of behavior such as law and morality, and systems of belief as well as the art. It also involves the coming together of different ethnic groups, religion, age, sharing the same idea and belief as one.

People say art is culture and creativity.Culture and creativity are all one. Talents are also part of what makes culture such as dance, music (hip-hop), e.t.c.

As you can see in the pictures, those are art works and they are used in explaining what culture is all about. The pigmentation of various hands holding the globe shows their "one belief" and purpose to save the world. It also shows the multiplicity of races.What I'm trying to implement here is that, daily activities, behaviors, expressions acted upon in our lives are all within the boundaries of culture.
