“You See/I Am” — Intro (Joey, Ashlee, Jermeisha, Caitlin, Heidi, Max, Taylor, Keeley, Nue, Matt)

Using magazines, found objects, & pen & ink, students transformed their portraits into multi-media collages depicting the vibrancy of their personalities, their dreams, their life stories, & their future visions.
