Oomzah Visual Arts (OOM-zah)

Written by orphidor

The art created by the Oomzah demonstrates their ties to the natural world in awe-inspiring ways. Through the use of unique techniques and objects from nature, the Oomzah create works of art that can reach colossal proportions.

History

Because of the simplicity of their preferred media and the fact that the Oomzah never felt the need to restore the tall cities, this race began their creative endeavors immediately after the Age of Balance started.

Execution

Petroglyphs and petroforms are common in Oomzah art. Subjects are likely to involve forms from nature, such as animals and plants, as well as temple-like structures. Though the petroforms require open spaces to create, the Oomzah never uproot trees in order to make these spaces, preferring instead to rely on the presence of natural clearings.

Components and tools

Rocks are used often for Oomzah creations, both to carve petroglyphs and to arrange into petroforms. The rocks used in petroforms can be enormous in size, requiring great strength and patience to move.

Participants

Other races often wonder why the Oomzah create large-scale petroforms if they can't fully appreciate them. The reason why is because these monuments serve as a way of honoring nature. Intelligent observers aren't the only intended audience.
