The exhibition will feature a dynamic series of artworks created by 25 students from my “Discovering Identity: Painting, Printmaking, Photography, and Prose,”Art Class. Some of the artworks include: transformed antique organ pipes into ‘Me-sical instruments’ that explore the sound of identity; body image sculptural forms made from personal and recycled materials; puppets with surrealistic personalities; gestural paintings and drawings focusing on personal, social, and environmental issues; and self-portrait (Identity Maps) that integrate photography and green chemistry.
