What is Art education in the 21 century?
​
Visual literacy is paramount to understanding the 21st century. To read, decipher, and discern information communicated through visuals is foundational. Keeping up with the changes in linguisitcs, pop culture, politics, economics, history, and psychology are key components in the analysis and evaluation of visual information.
​
Students are the heart of the educational experience. My role is to facilitate critical thinking (hopefully) and to support a love for learning through artistic research and art-making. My aim is to create an inclusive environment where every student can thrive.
