The diversity of Rutgers University
had a deep impact on me personally. For my third solo art exhibit at the BCC gallery, I wanted to celebrate cultural diversity. "The Standard" was a dedication to all of my friends, their cultures, and the strong personal connections that I made with them. The photograph above was taken from an installation entitled "From Camden to College." The scene depicts me as a bright-eyed curious kid in awe of my cultural experiences at the university. Three women represent three distinctive cultures, (Latino, Indian, and Asian, respectively), and dance traditional cultural dances. The base of the installation displayed many photographs of my friends and I showing our true diversity and friendships.
