A Practical Guide to Modest Magic
A Practical Guide to Modest Magic takes the art assignment as its point of departure, with written instructions that prompt college and university student participants to respond to find magic in the everyday. The assignments encouraged students to explore various themes, including cross-border collaborations, curating their own exhibitions in unconventional spaces, and more, to build empathy by recognizing and appreciating the magic inherent in each artist鈥檚 practice. The prompts sparked creativity from students at colleges and universities across San Diego County, Orange County, Los Angeles, and Tijuana.
Combined, the selections showcase a diverse array of approaches and philosophies to artmaking, including large-scale installations, interactive murals, video, photography, painting, sculpture, sound, poetry, choreography, and dance.
