For our 2018 Fall Showcase, students created a unique exhibit entitled The Art of Being Human which was inspired by the work of Sally Taylor and her Consenses collaborative projects.  In this exhibit, students from each discipline created a piece of art inspired by something another discipline created.  It is very much like a sophisticated game of "telephone."  Each "strand" begins with a word which is selected randomly by a photography student.  That artist asks the question, "What would this word look like if it were a photograph?" The photo gets passed on to musicians who ask, "What would this photograph sound like if it were a song?"  

Click each word below to view the strand that it inspired.
