This is the work of the Graphic Design 2 students at Taiyuan Normal University in Taiyuan City, Shanxi, China. Their work is impressive. They are excellent at package design, have an a mazing sense of color and clearly understand the language of visual metaphors. We are happy to be collaborating with them this semester.
My piece, which is composed of sixteen individual polariod images, was inspired by a few things. When I thought about the theme of fall, I wanted to simultaneously communicate the beauty of nature, change of season, and a thought of hopefullness and optimism. Autumn brings about some of the most aesthetically beautiful natural landscapes. For me, I find that the small span of time between the remnants of summer and the impending fall to be the most tender and vivid. I attempted to capture this in my piece. The warm wheat colored fields--a symbol of the harvest--and the strong, still green, line of trees, communicate the feeling of an "Indian summer." Secondly, I used the series of separate polariods in specific layers to imply transition. As the lines shift from the blue sky to the images of a human girl, I wanted to express a sentiment of fall and change. Lastly, I hoped signify a sense of hope and optimism with the seemingly endlessness expanse of a field and the freedom and openess it brings.

Kindergarten Paul Klee
Geometric Dreamscapes:
Kindergarten students explored the bold work of Swiss painter Paul Klee, who utilized large blocks of color and abstracted shapes to create dream cities and images of remembered gardens. The kindergarten students applied a study of color theory using primary, secondary, tertiary, analogous and complementary colors to create interesting combinations in their own work.
Ask yourself: What type of dreams do these paintings depict? If you could paint your dreams, what would they look like?

In this project the students were directed to the Nobel lecture speech by Harold Pinter where he criticized the U.S. for its foreign policies. They contrasted this with a parody "roast" that the comedian Stephen Colbert gave at the press core dinner in Washington DC. The results were odd, stunning, and let to interesting discussion in class.
