without vocal accompaniment. This includes playing instruments like pianos,
guitars, violins, and drums to produce melodies, harmonies, and rhythms.

portraying characters and telling stories. It combines elements like acting, set
design, costumes, lighting, and sound to engage audiences in a shared
experience.
Dance - is a physical art form that involves rhythmic movement of the body to
express emotions, tell stories, or convey abstract concepts. It comes in various
styles and genres, each with its own techniques, movements, and cultural
influences.
VISUAL ARTS
Film is a visual storytelling medium that uses moving images and audio to
convey
narratives, ideas, and emotions. It involves a combination of cinematography,
editing, sound design, and acting to create a complete audiovisual experience.
Animation involves creating the illusion of motion by displaying a series of still

images in rapid succession. It can be done through various techniques, such as
traditional hand-drawn animation, computer-generated imagery (CGI), or stop-
motion animation.
Architecture is the art of designing and creating physical spaces that encompass
both functionality and aesthetics. It involves the planning, designing, and
construction of buildings and structures that serve various purposes, from
residential and commercial spaces to public and cultural landmarks. Architects
blend practical considerations like safety, comfort, and efficiency with artistic
elements such as form, materials, and spatial relationships to shape
environments that impact human experience and culture. Architecture has the
power to shape societies, reflect cultural values, and inspire emotions through
the
built environment.
Comics are visual storytelling mediums that use a combination of illustrations

and text to convey narratives, ideas, and humor. They often use panels and
sequential art to guide the reader through a story.
Weaving is a textile art form that involves creating fabric by interlacing threads
or
yarns at right angles. It can produce intricate patterns and textures, and it has
been used historically for both functional and artistic purposes.
