Week 1 D4

A Student Response From:MaximusI love Rose’s notion on the idea of “fiction” becoming damned. It seems in many instances today we don’t allow the common sight to be magical in any way. There has been a deficit of creativity, and exploration for the unusual. It seems many have forgotten how to nourish, as Simpson would say, our creative minds, by …

Week 1 D3

A Student Response From:AubreyThe ever-evolving challenge that I have faced in my life is the ability to take up space and to not feel like my existence in that space is any less valuable than that of the other members of this strange, magical world. Whether that be with my body, my personality, or my opinions, taking up the space …

Week 1 D2

A Student Response From:MeganMy favorite places tend to be imagined ones. I like the idea of existing in far off planets, and unfamiliar worlds, or in open fields on clear starry nights. I like to collect ideas that romanticize the world around me. I like to think that one day, if I work hard enough, these hopes, and dreams of …

Week 1 D1

A Student Response From:CristianAs an artist, being able to share your work with others is what many would consider to be the goal. Art is meant to be shared or experienced. And the art that we make is always changing. I will go from drawing to needle felting in the same day as an example. Even though art is changing …

Week 1 C4

A Student Response From:AllyssaI am the girl running in heels she hasn’t learned to walk in yet. Clumsy, straggling, and probably going to break something but still going. I am late, but also somehow right on time. I had a meeting right before this and I have an event after. I figure that if I go to bed now I …

Week 1 C3

I have been learning how to trust my stomach, preferring to shift through sensations with unfamiliar hands as I reach through my guts.

Week 1 C2

A Student Response From:RebeccaI greatly appreciate having the space to consider self and truth as we know it and furthermore, open ourselves to each other to possibly redefine our perceptions! I think quite often of how my own truths influence my perception of myself and the way in which I approach being and the choices I take. A lifetime of …

Week 1 C1

A Student Response From:ErThe “truth” is something that is almost held in the divine, Something that is golden beyond belief, To the point that mere mortals can barely touch, The holy words of truth, We change our words at every instance, To make ourselves nicer, Or to help us achieve more, We find ourselves in a precarious state, “What’s more …

Week 1 B4

A Student Response From:VictoriaI like the fact that she states that it is your business, we as humans get to pick and choose what we want to say, feel, as well as how we respond to things. Although what others say is none of our business and most of the time their words do not directly affect us, we can …

Week 1 B3

A Student Response From:BaahozohniiOn truth… this makes me think about how easy it is for our perceptions to be swayed and shifted. all it takes is one conversation, one thought, one seemingly mundane moment. I can relate to the Bearsun thing, he came through the Navajo Nation a while back. His truth and belief in what he was doing really …
