Project Overview
Everyday we are exposed to different individuals, perspectives, and walks of life. Have you ever thought about why some individuals have similar features to yourself? Why is identity so important? Does the way we define ourselves affect how other people look at us? This project will allow students to develop their ability to empathize with others and engage in meaningful ways with members of our community and beyond.
Final Product
As an interdisciplinary project, students will create one to two minute mini-documentaries depicting perceptive ideas around race and culture. Along with these documentaries, students will create resonating photographic art. Students will create a news article that will house their research-based article(s), and create a graphical art piece depicting various phenotypes shared amongst us. Students will also create a digital art piece or, a digital plan for a conceptual art piece, that addresses an insight that they identified while interviewing their subject. At exhibition students will present their digital art piece and share their design process.
