There was this one time back in my old school when my class was very stressed regarding on-going projects and competitions. Most of the time when many people are agitated all at once, animosity can really foster between each other, and I guess that was what happened between me and my classmates. Hence, that day, I was really upset though mostly at myself. I went to choir practice feeling really gloomy. Yet, as it went on, the magic of the music just seeped through my veins and seemed to brighten up my mood. By the end of the practice, I felt as if a weight had been lifted off of my chest. For me, that was an experience of catharsis. I was able to blow off some steam and really reflect on myself and my actions through music and bonding with the people whom I share my love for music with.

I agree with the Theory of Mimesis because I believe artists create their masterpiece through inspiration. Either inspired by a person, an event, a thing, or a feeling.

When I draw after a tough day, it helps me relieve my stress. During exam week, I normally spend an hour just doodling after studying and more often than not I feel much better afterward. This has become sort of a tradition for me whenever I'm studying for a long test or even preparing for a project - I make sure to spend my break idly doodling as this helps me get rid of the negative emotions I feel when stressed.

As a troubled child, art was often my escape. Making art allowed me to think only of what I wanted to create. Art was like a friend that I always turned to express all my emotions. In the end, I've turned my emotions into something that I can be proud of. I also experience catharsis through viewing art. Through viewing art, I am able to feel and live the thoughts of the artist. I would often get left behind while in museums since I'd spend too much time pandering over art pieces. It is through art that I am able to feel but also not to feel.

I don’t agree with the Theory of Mimesis because I feel like Art is more than just a copy. More than imitating, art builds upon the essence of something to invoke emotions the item itself normally would not.

While I've never had a very life-changing experiences involving this, I sometimes just sit down and work on a drawing for even just 30 minutes, and end up forgetting about other things and shift into a state where I just silently draw.

A few months ago, I was casted as "Hervacio" in the production “Hervacio Tubulan” by Dulaang Sibol. Hervacio, in the play is a young man who repeatedly gets rejected by all those around him, which inevitably leads to him breaking down at the end of the play. Being that the character I played carried so much pain and emotion, I was able to pour out all the negative feelings I had piling up in me in such a productive and positive way, which was very therapeutic for me.

Prosthetic Limbs

I treat prosthetic limbs as a physical function art form because these are meant to be used by people who lack specific body parts, and compensate for what they lack. They were designed to be similar to a real human leg and not be bulky as to not interfere with the user or anyone. I really think that this is also an art form because of how discreet it is and the design that the creators of this went with as to not make the people who lack limbs be in the spotlight.

After stressful days of projects, reviews, competitions, or just anything in general, I've made it a personal habit to just unwind with a few games if it isn't too late anymore, but I remember this one specific time where I was too frustrated even with my games, so I tried working on a poem. My mind just wouldn't put the words I want on paper so I just let my hand wander until I was accidentally drawing, and it was the most relieving experience ever.

I partially agree with Plato's theory of Mimesis. I believe that it depends on the person if it was from pure imagination or from observing the natural world. A person's imagination can come from experience but there are works that are just too creative to be copy of something.

# data[].attributes.body
I disagree with the Theory of Mimesis. Art is beyond imitation of the physical world. Often, artists create things simply out of their imagination. Imagination may sprout from the physical world, but the manifestation of this imagination may be something completely novel.

Around the end of last year, all the assignments and projects were starting to pile up (admittedly because I procrastinated a few of them,) and I was starting to get stressed from having to constantly focus on so many vastly different things, and probably after the third day of not really having a break from all the group meetings and research, coupled with some studying sessions to prepare for the tests that would inevitably come to finish off the year, it was safe to say that the stress was already reaching the point that my output was being negatively affected along with my interpersonal relationships with both my friends and groupmates. I started getting frustrated faster, giving up more, settling for mediocre work because I couldn't be bothered to redo a certain part of my project, and just overall running myself down. After I became a bit more self-aware of what I was doing to myself and those around me, I decided that a short one hour break was warranted, so I laid in bed, closed almost everything on my laptop to take my mind off of it, and just started playing a playlist of my favorite music while I closed my eyes and just let myself be consumed by the music. By the time the hour passed, I got up from the bed feeling rejuvenated and ready to get back into things.

During Grade 9, it was not incredibly stressful since the school was quite forgiving with the amount of homework their giving. However, my schedule was getting a monotonous, and I was becoming apathetic with academics. I experienced catharsis when I was just playing the violin with my orgmates. I don't think it was through the power of music that I felt rejuvenated. Perhaps, the music itself helped a bit, but the process of making the sheet music into sound with my friends was the reason why I felt lively and jovial.

# data[].attributes.body
Whenever I get stressed or overwhelmed by academics, I take a break and listen to music. I stop what I'm doing, lay in my bed, and play my playlist. This helps me get relaxed and calm down. Listening to music has been my go-to stress-relieving activity ever since I was younger.

I believe that catharsis may be achieved in the smallest ways possible; for me, that’s running, jogging, or exercising after a long day of working. Releasing pent-up emotions and stress during cardio is my way of purging, and I feel calmer after each exercise session.

I agree with this theory. Even though the artist may not intend to copy something from the natural world, the art will always have some elements inspired by the artist's experiences. Even the most abstract of art can have things like colors seen in the natural world, etc.

# data[].attributes.body
Experiencing moments wherein I release my pent-up negative emotions using music is not uncommon; it happens at least once a week. Whenever I feel bad I usually play the guitar or the ukulele and sing songs that make me happy and it often works. While it doesn’t solve any of my problems, the simplicity of strumming strings brings me peace. It gives me hope that after I’m done solving all my problems that make me feel stressed, I can feel the peace I felt while playing my instruments once more.

My personal experience of catharsis is when I keep making circles on a clean sheet of paper. I’d start with a very small circle to a bigger one until the paper ran out of space. I do this form of emotional cleansing every time I feel that I’ve had a long day.

I somehow agree with Plato's "Theory of Mimesis". In one way or another, all artworks are inspired by a real thing that happened or exists in real life. It doesn't necessarily have to be an exact copy or imitation of that thing. I think art imitates life as long as it reflects the current state of something and records it through whatever medium was used, whether it be the artist's feelings, the society they are living in, or their environment.

# data[].attributes.body
Plato’s Theory of Mimesis says that art is the imitation or copy of life. While I do agree that art may be the imitation of life, I believe that it is not bound to the natural world. Plato also has his theories on Forms and Ideas—which is quite contradicting to his Theory of Mimesis, as art may be out of this world, it may be new ideas, or art may be representation of something intangible.

After going through a long day in school, I usually take two hours of my free time to exercise. Although I don't workout every day, it helps me calm down after a day of being stressed and restless.

One experience of personal catharsis that I've had would be when I cooked food for myself after a very stressful and tiring day. This really helped me to forget about all the problems I had, and to focus on the food that I was cooking.

One specific medium can be wood carving. These can be applied in order to make all sorts of figurines/statues which is an art form in itself.

Yes, I do believe that art is an imitation of life (Theory of Mimesis) and everything that can be seen (physical things). Because before drawing anything, artists look for inspirations or ideas from things that are seen. Although there are mythical or fictitious things, we get our imagination from our preknowledge of the things we have seen before. I believe a person born legally blind cannot imagine anything and do art without someone guiding them. Because they don't know what something looks like. All they know is darkness. Every art came from an inspiration of something.

Some people keep their art limited to mimicry of real life, but there are lots of art that go beyond reality. A first step to this is surreal art, clearly inspired by real life but unbounded by physical laws. The similarities with our world starts being less and less apparent with other art forms like abstract art and white paintings.

More often than not, I dance to relieve myself from stress and pressure. Especially last year, throughout the duration of our first year in this online learning set-up, I just found myself doing these mini dance sessions in my room just to serve as my break from schoolwork.

For me, I experienced catharsis when I felt unfulfilled and just wanted to do something that I was passionate about. I was able to use writing multiple times to express my thoughts and emotions. I was able to release my thoughts on climate, ethics on laws and even mental illness through writing essays, letting myself vent out my thoughts in a semi-organized, fulfilling way that I can read over and over again, knowing that what I write represents what I believe in and how I think. It lets me feel at peace and have fun relaxing, knowing that I'm still able to successfully express my thoughts and be happy with my work.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't agree with Plato's Theory of Mimesis. I believe that art is something unique to its' creator, and that while art is something that's inspired and observed by something existing, it's always somehow different when translated into an actual artwork, almost as if given its' own traits by the artist. Even artforms that aim to copy, like extreme realism, or perhaps even sculpturing to an extent is special because it's made on a different medium from the thing they're attempting to recreate.

Whenever I feel stressed or saddened, I just put on some music and vibe. My ears start to indulge itself on the soothing music as my mind started to groove and formulate steps of its own. Dance is my form of release and I always see this as my own personal catharsis. I put on a sad song or a happy one, depending on the mood and it just helps me forget whatever was bothering me and just focus on my own movements as I dance. If i am unable to move due to lack of space or in a public place, I would usually put on music or watch a dance video just to clear my mind.

Back in 9th Grade (month of December), it was the time when school requirements were so piled up and there were also Intersections to manage. Besides from academic stress, I also faced some personal matters that were distracting me from focusing on finishing the assessments. But instead of worrying so much about the workload and personal issues, I just released my stress on one of my projects – Christmas Parol. I made myself busy working on that Parol for it to be worth an A+ grade, for it to be worthy of being called a star. It was such a satisfying moment when I finally made my Parol lit up, and I was so delighted with the design I created.

One of the most popular forms of physical art. Fashion designers create unique designs that we appreciate through fashion shows and boutiques.

There is one time that I feel so bad about myself because of being unproductive and grade-conscious. I don't want to bother anyone or even my parents. During that day, we don't have any classes, so I just sat on the floor with my pen and paper. I look outside the window and listen to the chirping sound of birds. I drew the "calming" sky and I felt a relief inside me because nature is truly a work of art.  That's when I realized that I just need to walk away from my school works first and take a look at the beauty of nature (I should do sightseeing). I also realized that I need to be just like the "nature" who is calm and who lets things flow naturally.

As a moody, 16 year old teenager, no experience can get me as close to a "personal catharsis" as much as anime can. Since the start of the quarantine, anime has been my escape from reality. For a few moments, I can forget about the logic-driven world of ‘actions-have-consequences’ that doesn’t pause to mourn our individual losses or celebrate our achievements. For a short while, I can fall into a dream-like, fictional story where the universe itself is fighting on the same side that we're on rather than remaining on the side of absolute apathy. For a few minutes, I can escape reality and take a leap of faith, discarding logical inconsistencies and ambiguities.

I play guitar so I love making music, even if I'm not very good at it. During physical classes, my band and I would have practice sessions in a studio in Katipunan every Friday. It was really fun because all my band mates were friendly and we weren't pressured by a grade we would other wise have if it were music class. It was a way to escape the stress of school work, appreciate art, and express ourselves through music.

Personally, I do agree with the theory of Mimesis. I believe that the personal outputs we have as artists in our own right are influenced by the art around us. Accordingly, I heard that many musical artists were able to find their sound or their style by listening to music they were drawn to. Being that they were influenced by the music they hear, they are able to mimic that sound in their own music, but are able to add their own twists to it. Adam Lambert is someone who sings for Queen nowadays, and he is able to take Freddie Mercury, the former Queen vocalist's style and add his own style and sound to it. Moreover, I believe that, yes, are is mimetic, but that dosen't mean that we add our own twists and originality to the things we create.

When the pandemic started, most of the things that we normally do was shut down. At first I did not really care about it. I just go with the flow and said to myself that it will be alright at some point in time. But time passed and I saw myself not doing anything, I finished grade 9 but I felt incomplete because I felt that I didn't really reached the finish line. I felt pity for myself after looking back and realizing that I was not really productive these past days. This pity and anger for myself became my energy and I started drawing portraits, particularly Ryujin. This was Catharsis for me as this drawing made me realize that I can use my time productive even if it is pandemic.

After realizing that I am one of billions of people in the world, I thought about how miniscule my existence was and how unimportant I really am. For a long time there was a debate between me and myself talking about how everything would be the same and nothing would happen if I just disappeared and ended my own life. I gave up on my workout habits, just eating then going back to sleep, and this cycle repeated over and over and over again for at least a month. I would have negative thoughts as well whenever I would try to cheer myself up, until I watched a cliche inspirational youtube video. The video that I watched immediately made me break down and cry and started building my mindset today. And the mindset that I had for myself was that "Who cares what you do, who cares what you are, just live your life 🤬 it, just enjoy until its over".

One medium with a lot of 3D Applications is plastic. One of the main reasons why plastic is so commonly used is it's relative ease in terms of melting. Apart from the obvious molding things with plastic, which is the baseline of lego, 3D Pens, which are pens that can create lines sturdy enough to stand on their own, use small tubes of plastic, called filament, as it's medium of creating art, like how pencils use lead.

The theory of mimesis, for me, is not necessarily correct. I believe that art is not a copy of life by the pure definition of the word, but rather is beyond life—the human psyche. I say that the conscience is beyond life because it is non-physical but it thrives through life. And art, as a form of product of human thought, not only imitates life, but it emulates what is inside us.

I personally disagree with Plato's theory of mimesis. I don't believe that art is simply limited to being an imitation of something that has already been created. It is much more — it is a way of expressing emotion, and creating what cannot already be seen in nature. For instance, think of musicians and their symphonies! Pieces of art birthed out of what could be agonizing, and indescribable pain that can only be interpreted through music!

Ever since this pandemic started, there was nothing really much to do. And we were forced to do online classes. Without much of physical quality time with friends, we can't go to malls, bond outside, eat outside, and more activities has been banned. So, during my classes, I was really having a hard time to enjoy my life. I was always drained, stressed, and it even reached to the point that I would think of not going to classes anymore, maybe go absent for some days. The workloads and all the activities are too heavy for me to handle. But then, I found out about cycling. Cycling really helped me to escape reality, escape my problems, and to get my head off such things. Although it was not yet allowed to go outside, but they allowed solo exercises such us jogging, cycling, and etc. Whenever I feel down or stressed, I release some emotions through cycling. The feeling of the wind is just relaxing, just wandering around God's nature is everything. Setting my mind off things that stresses me and allowing my physical body to exercise and wander around. I think this experience is an example of personal catharsis.

Theory of Mimesis says that all art is mimetic by nature. I do agree that some art is an imitation of life because it is human nature to imitate what we see.
