“The compulsion to communicate our experiences as human beings on earth at any given time is universal. This creative impulse spans the beginning of time onto our own recent history. They are graphic records that link us to our distant past. Cave painting, petroglyphs, groups of stones, all cross cultural records, saying this is who we were when we were here. Early writing which began about five thousand years ago, survives as cuneiform indentations in clay and hieroglyphs painted on the walls of tombs or carved into stone; whether they were for communion with the gods or simple communication, the creative work left behind have evolved into the art forms we know today.”
