For my project I chose to compare foods that are marketed as healthy compared to foods that actually are. Many people want to improve their health but do not know what to look for and end up being tricked by… Continue Reading →
I took inspiration from the cover designs of the iconic novel 1984 by George Orwell to explore the censorship of books with LGBTQ themes in public schools and libraries. The ghostly figures represent an angry mob using school boards and… Continue Reading →
Periodical cicadas Brood XIX and Brood XIII are scheduled to appear this spring and overlap in their emergences, a collision that only occurs every 221 years. My goal was to create a piece that shows a depiction of what each… Continue Reading →
For my art piece I wanted to pay respects to nature and my culture. Fish prints or “Gyotaku” is a Japanese way to preserve and appreciate the beauty of fish. I wanted to show others how amazing these creatures are.

For my topic I choose to create a collage inspired by how this generation of young children are not playing outside nearly as much as kids used to. For the photos of the outdoors I used vintage National Geographic photos… Continue Reading →
