History of Arts and Crafts

Difference Between Art & Craft
What is art?  I personally see art as a benchmark. A benchmark created by humans which inspires others. Art can have a variety of forms. Painting, sculpture, cooking, photography, film..etc. Art is the thing that pushes the boundaries of technology, science, and human capabilities. We see humans punching boundaries of material to process.What is craft?  I see craft as the foundation of mass manufacturing. Craft has its own advantages and disadvantages of mass production. Craft is a largely available craft. When we give function to art it becomes the craft. I see craft and art as overlapping each other. Mostly art serves aesthetic purposes. And craft serves a human purpose. Craft is generally being passed by generations. And art is the expression of an individual. Art and craft are very important elements of society. It creates connections between the US and nature. It helps to connect with our feelings.
