This project was inspired by my passion for capturing everyday moments. This idea came to mind as I realized I have an infinite amount of photos in my camera roll that showcase the beauty of Washington state. I have an appreciation for candid photography because it highlights spontaneous moments that often go unnoticed. While photography is often seen as searching for perfect shots, I aim to encourage others to see the beauty in daily life. The goal of this project is to highlight the hidden beauty in ordinary moments.

Literary analysis

This project critiques W.E.B. Du Bois and John Stuart Mill’s views on societal truth, with a focus on race, freedom, and individuality. In The Souls of Black Folk and On Liberty, Du Bois and Mill discuss systemic oppression and the importance of diverse perspectives in uncovering ‘the truth’. The project also highlights how truth is shaped by power structures and personal biases, issues we might recognize today in a world where misinformation and selective truths prevail. Through this exploration, I aim to encourage reflection on how we can overcome these societal barriers. Key features of this project include exploration of themes such as the power of education and the limits of authority.
