This show and symposium was a highly influential experience
for me as both an artist and art education student. It made me realize that
creating and teaching are interconnected because informing an audience in a
creative manner through art influences and teaches people’s thinking to inquire
about ideas and their community or themselves. It also made me realize the
disjointedness of the art world and the art classes we teach. Our Theory and
Practice class contained conversation that strived to bridge that gap, but it
funny and weird how different those two world are. Why are we preparing our
children with art if it doesn’t reflect contemporary art? What world are we
dumping them into then?
