Abstract

The effort to make life meaningful and to meet the needs is a challenging effort that has continued since the existence of human beings. Art strengthens the desire to build a meaningful future with activities created to intensify life energy, relax the inner world, and realize its goals. People who want to develop knowledge and skills, participate in life voluntarily, ensure a common life value, shape the environment and nature with meaningful activities, and strengthen their morale and motivation with art.

Emotions and thoughts that give meaning to human life are shaped by searches that are sensitive, a world of love develops and internalizes permanent values through art. Human life matures through the search for meaning, feelings and thoughts are valued. The individual's sensitivity and consciousness rise by turning to understandings that bring together the creation of a cognitive and original world, the development of knowledge and skills with art.

The development of a person's personality, the search for meaning in life, knowledge, experience, and maturation create an intense emotional focus. It develops intellectual, literary, verbal, and visual creativity with an orientation to science, knowledge, and art, acquiring values that are open to change, and the functionality of art. In order to make their life meaningful; the more knowledge they are equipped with, the higher their sense of value, their participation in artistic activities, their art audience, and creativity. The search for meaning also highlights the idea of happiness. Film, novels, theater, and music are human pursuits of pleasantness and happiness. Attitudes such as acquiring value behaviors, eloquence, and tolerance, while reflecting his inner world to the outside, affect the environment and glorify the values of the cultural structure. Art activities, in an effort to build a conscious life, develop knowledge and consciousness that enrich the human spirit. In making sense of life, it is an effort to establish a self-conscious life, a desire to seek the beautiful and the good. The desire to overcome one's loneliness intensifies with the feeling of searching for meaning. The nurturing and creative aspect of art provides continuity to the different cultures that humanity has undergone, in searching for reasons for existence, questioning, researching, and producing solutions.
