In our recent studies of the brain, we learned to
differentiate between the two hemispheres by the characteristics associated
with each, for example, the left hemisphere is linked with doing, while the
right with being. Not simply existing
at one place at one time, but reacting emotionally with all that is going on
around you. Much of being human is being and appreciating life as it is.When
viewing the collage in class, each picture showed a person interacting with the
scene around them, either emotionally or physically, or a combination between
the two. Regardless of culture, race, class, or any other category that seems
important today, each photograph captured a moment of being emotionally and
physically human.
As for the difference between what it means to be man, and what it means to be woman, it
is difficult to give opinion without the influence of culture and society. Both
are equal halves of the human race, and neither can survive without the other.
An artist is someone who can express emotion and beauty
through his or her own talent, whether that talent be music, painting,
sketching, writing etc.
I really liked what you had to say, but I really would have liked you to expand more. I feel like you deffintily have a good base for what you want to say, but while reading I deffinitly felt like you could have given more information on your opinion and given more insight. I think because of that, your paragraphs seem a little rshed and didn't seem to end completly. Overall I would do a lot more explaining.
ReplyDeleteI liked that you elaborated on what you actually saw in the photographs to connect to your description of a human. Talking about the different aspects and culture like race, class, ect. proved what the pictures were trying to accomplish. I think you had great points and a good view but you could have elaborated more on the actual meaning of what a human being is.
