Students are asked to think about IMPORTANT social issues and then to brainstorm ways TO make artwork addressing THESE ISSUES utilizing appropriation

(undecided how exactly I’m going to visual execute it. Open to suggestions!!)

"Refugees that ran away from a war actually

Got through so much and how people look at them in that country.

Just drew what they reminded me still brainstorming."

"So I took Marloe’s idea of the coral being in a hospital bed to show that the coral reefs are dying(the vibrant colors of the coral reefs are not signs of health, but signs of heat damage). Then I want to show the tourist industry that profits off of the dying coral and the people who depend on the coral reefs for food and tourism. I plan to paint this"

"For my piece, I wanted to show the double standards that society has for different people in the LGBTQ+ community. I think my initial sketch does a good job of showing the contrast between how people are treated. A couple things that I will change in my next iteration are the closeness of the camera to the characters (I will zoom out so that others can be in the shot) and the placement of the characters (making the image read from left to right). I think these changes could help with clarity."

a bunch of other ideas are bulleted throughout like ideas to represent

different effects of climate change; ex: rising water levels in Bangladesh
