PROTEST ART

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE: as a survivor from domestic violence I would like to make protest art about that topic. I think it's important to talk about it through art because its a hard topic to talk about it verbally, domestic violence can be verbal, physical,mental, and emotional. if i choose this topic i think i want to focus on my own experience.I don't know what material or how I'm going to integrate art with this topic but I think it would be nice to do something about domestic violence.


IMMIGRATION: this topic is also related to me, since I was an immigrant a couple of years ago. this topic is always been an issues and is still a current issue. i have a lot of family and friends who are here illegally and are worried for their lives since the election went terribly wrong. i would like to show how people who are immigrants came here for a better future and i would like to do that through art. i want to show that not everybody who to America are bad and that in really they are here because their country has no future for them and that they are hard working people.

FOSTER KIDS: I was also in the foster care system and I saw the good and the bad about this system. i could focus on the bad part and how it could be better but i would like to do something about the kids who are in that situation. i need to think more about it, i want to encourage more people to foster kids or adopt kids, specially older kids, i also want to change people mind about kids being in foster care. they usually portrait kids in DCYF as bad kids but i think it has to do more with parents and different situations.
