My Modern Day Jewish Self
This question didn't come to me until the end of 1st semester, when Ms. Affleck noticed I was having difficulty finding a theme I was excited about and could really be creative with. Her advice was to make a collage of many things that were important to me. Upon looking over it, we realized the balance between the jewish religion aspects of my identity in the collage, and the typical teenage American part of me. So, my topic of design soon became focused on my jewish identity in America. However, only one piece showcased, is a part of my inquiry question, although the rest of my pieces are focused on identity and society.
