At Adrian College, completing a capstone is required for graduation. I am fortunate enough to have the ability to experiment with two capstones, one for studio art and the other for art history. For my capstone related to art history, I worked closely with Adrian's local artist, Carlos Tobar. Coordinating logistics, managing timelines, and assisting with promotional efforts. This exhibition honors memories from his childhood in South America and his interpretations of current events. His expressive use of color comes from his desire to speak to many, color evokes something within us. It is a universal communicator.
