Karen Keifer-Boyd on 11 Dec 10Group 5: Repko, Jeffrey Treciak, Alessandra Tyska, Madeline macussbentley@gmail.com fkiiza@yahoo.com Jeff Repko's artwork "Sweet" is on his blog at http://www.personal.psu.edu/jor5090/blogs/art_322/blog/ and described below: I created this image after I read the dialogue, we had with our classmates from Uganda. I wanted to represent that America has many diverse cultures and backgrounds. When I thought about it, I kept thinking about the term "Great American Melting Pot". So I decided to show the "Great American Melting Pot" in the form of a lake, because I also wanted to show the diverse landscape. In America we do have many large cites, but around us is also great forests and wildlife. Not all of the United States is in the big city rush. Also the ability to travel freely was brought up. So I wanted to show that we are in between the cities and wildlife because we can travel freely through both divers and separate environments. Alessandra Treciak's artwork is is on her blog at http://aliecats.livejournal.com/ and described below: A lot of the views from the students from Uganda were that America is segregated. I chose to depict this misinterpretation by creating a white and black form. The white form is more open and larger, symbolizing their beliefs that America has more opportunities for white people. It is also open because we do have a lot of freedom in that we can travel from state to state without restraint, aren't contained at home because of family members we need to take care of, and have many opportunities to make a living. The black form is more contained symbolizing their communities in which families usually stay and live together. It also shows that even though they can travel freely, it is more difficult to go from place to place. The smaller form is also showing a misconception that blacks are not as valued and don't have as much to offer. I believe that segregation is almost nonexistent and that everybody is equal.
