Art can be expressed in many different ways. Through different types of media, a person can express their point of view or tell a story. This is shown in the Indonesian culture with “Wayang Kulit”. These puppets, that are intricately cut, perform a story with the use of oil lamps that flicker shadows through the cutouts. No words need to be spoken for a story to be told with the use of these puppets.
When movies first came out, no words were spoken in the films. People were still able to understand what was being expressed in the film. Since the snapshot or film was invented, high tech media has been invented to better express stories and show experiences of individuals. With the use of these different types of media, stories can be passed down from generation to generation.
