For my image this blog post, we were instructed to tell the story of a stranger. I thought about the strangers in my daily life and I found that I most often interact with “strangers” through my device. Here I showed how we can be in contact with strangers yet we are still separated from […]
Story Telling
Blog Post #19: Aging
For my aging image, I decided I wanted to represent the scary and unknown that comes with getting older. Especially in your teen years, knowing that you are aging into a young adult, it can be really daunting and confusing. I thought that a good metaphor for it was taking a step and not knowing […]
