A20 Mural Arts Series
Teaching Artist, October 2016-May 2017
The A2O program was a Partnership between Mural Arts and Parks and Recreation. Its goals were two-fold: to create a semi-permanent work of art at and after-school recreational center and to expose the students to nature.
I added my own goals: to facilitate vivid self-portraits of teenagers and explore their sense of fashion. I wanted the final product to say: we are the art.
The resulting portraits had a little bit of everything: art, nature, self and fashion.
