Culture is a complex and dynamic system of human experience, knowledge, and behavior that is shaped by forces of history, memory, ecology, and politics. It bridges the spiritual, physical, and metaphysical realms, communicating between them and creating what is known as the “cultural landscape.” Culture is manifested in a variety of ways, including language, religious and spiritual practices, literature, customs, music, art, and food, just to name a few. It is the living sum of our collective humanity – both historically rooted and constantly evolving.
