Art is one of the crucial factors that define a society and protect its cultural identity; it plays a key role enlighting us with inclusive information in history and anthropology that has been explored about many anecient civilisations. However,fewer people pursue art path these days, and the most part focus on other fields like science, technology, and marketing. It might be a result of globalization, or simplly, it is just an indicator to the increasing difficulties for people to get by and survive with their basic needs. Although rare initiatives are launched to support artists and encourge people to take interest in the arts; it is an promising to be on the right track.
Most people are interseted in applied science and marketing-related services rather than arts or literature; in other word, fast money and short-term investments are prioritized. Social media plays a key role in turning people to passive customers without precise preferences or clear orientations. For example, we can notice trends and challenges can spread like wildfire relgardless its ridiculous origin.
Government-supported initiatives like exhibitions for local artists, and free courses for art amateurs can be first steps toward mitigating the effects of this issue. Moreover, awaring children in schools about the importance of arts as a human science and its role carring a universal message, can make a positive impact on them while growning up, hence, more appreciation is recieved in the future.
In conclusion, I think fast-paced life has sharply affected on our interests and that is justified, sometimes it is better to go with the flow, but we have to be conscious about protecting our cultural and artistic identity before it exctincts.
