"Make a replica of my bed" Mitzi Zepeda

The assignment I chose was make a replica of my bed. The process I chose was a sculpture and the materials I used was cardboard, paper, acrylic paint, gems, cotton, and cloth. I want my audience to understand is that it represents me. For example, my blanket is pink which is my favorite color. Also, the design of my bed's frame is how I like vintage which the design is Victorian era. While I was doing this art action, I realize that I have to value the simplest things more.

Emilyn Gutierrez- Advice to myself in the past

i. Give advice to yourself in the past

ii. I just used a little pocket notebook and a pen. I choose these materials because it made the project pretty easy and it seemed the most effective way to explain the advice I would give to myself and it also allows me to keep on adding more advice to myself. 

iii. I'm trying to express how everyone has gone through different things in their life and has made some mistakes but there is always room for improvement. And by giving advice to yourself like I did in this project it can help you avoid similar mistakes or help improve. 

Physical Change (My Bed) -Nicole Trinidad

i. Make a replica of your bed.

ii. I used cardboard, clothes fabric, and cotton balls. I tried to recreate my bed frame first then the actual mattress and the small details, such as pillows/stuff animals.

iii. Through this artwork I want my audience to understand that we're all pretty different and that can be reflected through our beds since it is so personal. 

iv. This artwork just reminded me of my bed; since I was working on it in class I just felt like going home and sleeping.

Roberto Calderon-Whale wars

My topic was animal cruelty specifically poaching. Poaching is the illegal hunting of animals for money. I want people to understand that poaching can lead to extinction and that whales are living things too and deserve to live a life naturally. Also, I want the viewers to see how whales are being slaughtered by humans in order to satisfy the demand for their goods. Humans and animals can live together in the same world.

Artist Statement

I want everyone who reads this to realize the seriousness of using drugs and alcohol. A taste can lead to addiction, and addiction WILL lead to death. Hopefully this will make people think before failing into the temptation of drugs.

Omar Chavez-Love Over Being Violent

The issue that i discuss in my zine is the violence that occurs in Chicago. My opinion is that theres way too much violence going on everyday. Innocent lives are always taken due to all this chaos that goes on. I want people to understand the kind of violence and tragic events that go on everyday in Chicago. That way they will be more informed and know that these things are happening in our own city.
