The specialty of an artist is that he is able to create art for the
sake of art itself without needing any ulterior motives. Some artists
create their works of art for the satisfaction of the society in which
they live. In this case, they have to confine to the societal demands
and limitations. However, there are also others who go beyond the
social restrictions and create art for the pleasure of creating. It is
believed that through art the artist can create a change in society.
This is because art appeals to all senses of people.

History of Artisan
artisan (from French: artisan, Italian: artigiano) is a skilled craft worker who makes or
creates material objects partly or entirely by hand. These objects may be functional or
strictly decorative, for example furniture, decorative art, sculpture, clothing, food items,
household items and tools and mechanisms.
Medieval artisans
During the Middle Ages, the term "artisan" was applied to those who made things or
provided services. It did not apply to unskilled manual labourers. Artisans were divided
into two distinct groups: those who operated their own businesses and those who did
not. Those who owned their businesses were called masters, while the latter were the
journeymen and apprentices.

Stages in Production Process
3 The process of creating an artwork does not necessarily follow a linear progression. One of the
things that one must accept is the fact that the arts have anarchic dimension to it, allowing it
to fully harness its creative potential. The very reason why different art styles, periods, and
movements were made possible, is because there was a form of flexibility given to artist in
terms of how to conceptualize and execute their ideas into reality. But this does not mean
there is no guiding principle that governs the general process of art production.
1. PRE-PRODUCTION
The artist always begins with an idea that he wants to express or communicate with his
audience.
It may not necessarily be fully formulated, and so some form of exposure, research,
and their approaches may be explored to get the idea long before actually making the
artwork.
3 2. PRODUCTION
Some artist, however, birth their ideas when material manipulation is already underway. This
when preproduction sometimes seep into the production stage. The execution of the art
may take a variety of forms such as painting, sculpture, tapestry, photograph, film, a routine
(dance), or a track or composition (music).
3. POST - PRODUCTION
Once an artwork is finished, it will then be decided on how it will be circulated not only in the art
world, but the many publics. If the artist decides that he alone should see the work, then so be it. But
most of the time, if not always, the creation of the object requires that it be seen, heard, touched,
and/or experienced in a variety of ways.

Medium - refers to the materials that are used by an artist to create a
work of art. The plural for of medium is media. Without the medium, an
idea remains a concept, or it would just dwell in the walls of the artist’s
imagination. It is challenging to manipulate medium and transform it from
its raw state.

Concrete Works - The objects physically manifests
themselves for a prolonged or lasting period.

exhibits
In general, an exhibition is a planned arrangement and
display of a collection of items. Actually, exhibitions usually
take place within museums, galleries, and exhibition halls, and
World’s fairs. Exhibition can include many things, such as art
in both major museums and smaller galleries, interpretive
exhibitions, natural history museums and history museums,
and also varieties, such as more commercially focused
exhibitions and trade fairs. The word “exhibition” is usually, but
not always, the word used for a collection of items made
available to an audience. The term “exhibit” generally refers to
a single item being shown within an exhibition.
