    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”.

    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

When what you see shifts‚ departing from anyone else’s reality‚ it’s still reality to you” (Hornbacker‚ 2008‚ P. 6). Perception plays a huge role in our lives: whether we realize it or not. I always ask a trusted confidant of mine (and probably the biggest idiot I’ve ever known) about the state of the objects we perceive in our lives. Aside from becoming upset with his complete
