    Marina de Oliveira Ventura Beginning my personal analysis of ‘At Land’‚the waves mean that Maya is being dragged away from her own life. When she wakes up in the beach again‚ she has the opportunity of starting all over again‚ as the water represents a new start. As we see the waves in a reverse motion‚ they look like a carpet‚ as she was privileged to start again. As she climbs the rocks on the beach‚ the transition of the wild to the table means a transition in our own life: when we stop being

    Professor Gessler March 28‚ 2014 Arth 300 Roles of the Artist: Maya Lin There are one out of four roles that every artist could play and the one that I believe Maya Lin plays is “Artists make a visual record of the people‚ places‚ and events of their time and place”. I believe that this is how i have see her portrayed in this film because all of the landmarks and monuments that she had made were all so great due to the personal factor of having the historicals names and times written on them

    Who Killed the Maya This video series was very interesting to watch because I really had no real knowledge of this culture or what they were about. It is so hard to believe that one person who wanted so much power would have been the catalyst so many years later to have a people destroy themselves. One of the key points I felt this video shared would be that of hidden history. This group of people has so much history‚ a 2000 year old history chock full of so many details. Researchers have
