Introduction

Sculptures are two or three-dimensional works of art used in the representation of abstract forms. These include the artist’s ideas, and aspects of the environment. Sculptures can be made from varied materials such as; wood, metal, marble, clay, granite and paper. Sculpting involves the use of four basic techniques; assemblage, carving, modeling, and casting (Rice, 2). In the analysis of the sculpture, focus is on carving; a subtractive method where material is removed from a large mass to reveal a new form.

Introduction

Both Judith Carney and Rafael Marquese examine the contribution of African Slaves in the development and production of specific cash crops. Carney believes that the production of Rice in South Carolina is as a result of diffusion of agricultural culture from Africa to Americas. She argues that rice production was the culture of the West Africans far before the Portuguese explorers reached Africa in in the 14th century. Rice was the staple food among most of the West African communities. They used the mangrove swamps to create paddies and used canal irrigation to water the rice. The same methodology ...

Ideally, the cure violence model is an approach that is widely used in public health to reduce gun related violence. According to the model, violence, especially gun violence, is analogous to communicable diseases that are passed from one individual to another if left untreated (Maltz and Rice, 2015). The model stops the proliferation of violence in different communities by using the approaches related to disease control and prevention. Some of the strategies include identifying and treating the high-risk individuals, identifying and interrupting conflicts, and changing day to day social norms. In most cases, the strategies lead to a reduction ...

Most governments all over the world have social policies that help support and overcome the weaknesses of the major social organizations of the nation, especially the disabled, the youth and the elderly.

According to statistics, the Canadian population is rapidly aging. Older people makeup a rapidly growing population and, this trend is expected to go on for some time since there is improved life expectancy ...

Differences between Angiosperms and Gymnosperms? What makes them unique?

Angiosperms are believed to have evolved from gymnosperms. A significant difference between the angiosperm and the gymnosperm is that the angiosperms contain large water-conducting vessels in their wood whereas the gymnosperms have small conducting tubes (Rice, 2009). Additionally, the life cycle of angiosperms is much faster than that for gymnosperms. Fertilization in angiosperms may take a few days whereas in gymnosperms fertilization may take up to a year (Rice, 2009). The unique feature that makes angiosperms different from gymnosperms is that angiosperms have double fertilization (Rice, 2009).

Abstract

Human development is an area that has been one of the most discussed areas of study in the last one century. Cognitive development of a person from childhood days to adult years was studied extensively by a Swedish psychologist Jean Piaget. He is known as the father of cognitive development theories. His four stages of cognitive development, sensori-motor, pre-operational, concrete, and formal, are still considered to be the foundation of the cognitive development process. Piaget’s theory does not touch upon why individuals develop at a different rate or why there are different developmental stages. Vygotsky, on the other hand, proposed a completely ...

Genetically modified foods refer to crop plant-produced human and animal use using the new molecular biology methods. The plants are adapted in the laboratory to enhance them with desired traits such as improved nutrition content and increased resistance to herbicides. The enhancement of the desired traits was traditionally got through breeding. Conventional plant breeding techniques are time consuming and at times may lack accuracy. Genetic engineering produces plants that have the desired traits and are fast and very accurate. For instance, plant geneticists can separate a gene responsible for drought tolerance and insert it in a different plant. The new plant ...

Molcajete in Mexican means pestle and mortar. They are made from a block of basalt and are usually round with three legs. Three legs are meant to provide it with support as force is applied to it during grinding. Decorations are usually animal heads painted on to give it the look of a stout animal. Pigs are the most common animals used in the decorations. In the early days, they held sentimental values, but pigs on modern day molcajetes are simply used for decoration. The earliest use of the Molcajete was in a place called tehuacan, a valley of ...

Byzantine art is a general name which is used to describe the artistic products which come from the Eastern Roman Empire, which is sometimes known as the Byzantine, as well those which come from the nations and states which were culturally inherited from the empire. These products were mainly Christian-oriented art even though derived from techniques and forms of Greece and Egypt. This style spread to all other corners of the empire, even in places where the orthodox Christianity was flourishing (Evans &William, 2).
The style that characterized the Byzantine art was one which was almost concerned with the ...
