Project: Thesis project centered around the importance of art education
ART EDU was my senior thesis project at FIT. Students had the opportunity to choose a topic of their choice and create an art piece to support it. Art is such an essential subject in children’s education. It helps them with their development skills across other subjects. In my research, I payed a visit to my elementary school, St. Mark the Evangelist. I surveyed second, third, and seventh grade students asking them “What does art mean to you?” and “If I didn’t have art class,…” Most of their answers were funny as well as surprising. The design of the book was inspired by one of my favorite artists, Keith Haring.
