23-5770 Myth, Symbol, Image

This course introduces students to new ways of thinking about the connections between idea, meaning, and image in their work and to better understand these relationships. Content and interpretation related to photographic representation will be examined. Students discuss devices such as analogy and metaphor pertaining to myth, fairy tale, literature, and art. As part of the exploratory process, students will create photographs that relate to ideas of cultural and personal myth, and symbolic, metaphoric representations of those myths.
