About me page

This blog has been created for my web presence assignment. The theme chosen is 'Art' and the blog has three contributing nodes, i.e. Facebook, Twitter and Flickr. The contributing nodes helps in promoting the main blog as many people do not like to surf on blogs but rather on other social networks.

"The aim of every artist is to arrest motion, which is life, by artificial means and hold it fixed so that a hundred years later, when a stranger looks at it, it moves again since it is life."  ~William Faulkner


I have chosen the theme 'Art' and the title 'Morice Artz' because there is a great need of promoting Mauritian Artists. Nowadays, Artist are not being so much respected by the the public. The problem in the society is that only famous artists have the right to expose their art but the others remain the dark or unknown. The main purpose of the blog is to give the opportunity to artist of all age groups to share their feelings through their art on the blog. All arts are posted according to copyright laws.

"We all know that Art is not truth.  Art is a lie that makes us realize truth, at least the truth that is given us to understand.  The artist must know the manner whereby to convince others of the truthfulness of his lies."  ~Pablo Picasso


Another reason for choosing art is that i can consider myself as an artist, i love cooking, drawing, writing poems and slam it. This blog has been created to open a door for those who are afraid to show their capacity of being creative and one art can also be post as anonymous.

After interviewing some people, it has been shown that people think that Art is going to die and that they say that there is no future in being an artist. Some artist do it for the love of money, but on the blog, sharing our arts is for the love of being an artist and sharing our emotions and thoughts through our 'ARTS'.
