The birth of the greatest work of art in the entire universe – the Big Bang. 13.8 billion years ago. The birth of our time. Another 9.3 billion years passed, or 4.5 billion years back from our time, to begin to shape our solar system and planet earth. Continents and oceans were formed, and picturesque rivers and lakes were drawn on the earth. Another 1 billion years passed, which is 3.5 billion years ago, that life in its initial form would be possible on Earth.
But time was not in a hurry. Continents slowly emerged. Almost 3.5 billion years from the initial life and about 4 million years ago, the human ancestor emerged during evolution.
Humans had a total space of 510 million square kilometers on the planet that is the only place where man can exist at all and cultivate art, from which 149 million km2 is land. This is the whole living space we have in our solar system.
It took some more time for the person to get up and learn to make fire. The artistic expression was born in the form of cave paintings 30,000 years ago. Thousands of years passed when man began to draw on blackboards made of trees. Centuries later he began to use a canvas for painting, and from there, it took centuries until the first digital art appeared.
Every charcoal dash, every brush stroke, every drop of color, and every pixel in the computer is part of the creative journey of our humanity. And Altamira cave drawings, the oldest known work of art has survived 30,000 springs and its spark still warms our hearts. All this has happened over time from the emptiness we currently have.
And now we write the next chapter in our creativity. It all started 13.8 billion years ago and it does not end. Appreciate time and believe in creativity.
