The handmade book that you see here is the Romeo and Juliet novel. It has been made over to "steam punk" style. Steam punk style is a genre of science-fiction that was around in the 1980's or the Victorian time. The cover is made over with clay. The craftsmanship is unique, rare, and extraordinary. It is held together with string laces. The designs on the cover are artistic and original, its texture is exquisite . This book really stood out to me because it is an antique, making it very hard to find and distinct.

This piece of art stood out to me as I searched threw many abstract art pictures. The colors, forms, and shades are what make the picture so unique. When I look at this picture I see beautiful butterflies being able break threw the confusion and chaos of the dark ink splatters.This piece could be a personal representation of someone's experiences or feelings.

Race and Gender Criticism

 It can easily be said that more famous artists are judged differently  from less known artists. There are different  standards for artists in unlike social categories. Art that is more commonly know by the western culture will be judged accordingly to western principles. Will art that is not western be judged under western criteria?

Unfair judgment occurs more often than people think. I have witnessed unfair judgment several times with religion. As you may already know there are many religions existing in the world. Not all religions have similar beliefs. Religions such as Christianity and Islam have different beliefs. Christians worship God,Jesus,Virgin Mary, and the holy spirit. While Muslims only worship Allah.In the past there have been many incidents where Muslims committed terrorist attacks. Because of that people of other religions miss judge and assume all Muslims are terrorists.

In order for people everywhere to end judging others, society will have to exhibit being more open minded. The media has to show more diversity. Maybe then people will begin to notice that there are many more types of people out there than besides what their use to. Schools and education also play a major role in teaching people about the different religions and different types of people out in the world.
