Creative Arts

            Art is a way of life here, we can see art everywhere. At homes, in shops, in mosques and everywhere.These are people who are creative, who are born so, since time immemorial. Everywhere you pass by, in Syria you can see an art. When I visited the mosque there's an art be drawn most on the wall. Even you can see this kind of art at a mausoleum . The art that was illustrate is a harmony and beautiful, and it's shows that those  people are who seek peace and a gentle community. This are  expressed in their painting and writing.

          Most of the design are geometric designs in arabesque and calligraphy. There's also a sculpture which is carved in white marble and often is displayed in places and public building. There is lively tradition of handicraft production. Jewelery, particularly in gold and silver, is popular, as other metalwork, such as brass and cooper plates and bowls.Beside these, mosaic woodworking is also practiced and is used in the construction of boxes, trays, tables, desks and game boards. The city, Damascus is a center of glassblowing and fabric production, including the silk brocade called damask, which was name for the city.While weaving of fabrics , including carpets and prayer rug made on hand-built loom, and traditional clothing that is painstaking embroidered are from the specialty of the Bedouin.

       With a historical and legacy of mankind and focus of attention of most of the great empires, Syria are rich with the art which has been passed from generation to generations. Although the modern art emerged as time , but the old art are still preserved and live until today. And still be an option to those who appreciate the art. I , myself admired and impressed with their creativeness.
