Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

She does believe that the body might have been the first canvas alongside the cave walls. Mummification was practiced widely in the past. Even though the main goal of mummification was to preserve the body, artistic influences can been observed in the mummies.

In Chile the tradition of head shaping was practiced nearly 5000 years ago.

Hence, the the body may have been the first artistic canvas.
