Hunter College: A day in the life.

I walk to school in the morning from the 63rd stop of the F Train.  It's roughly a seven minute walk from the station, walking past various stores and people.  Hunter is always in vision with it's awkward looking bridge between the buildings.  

I buy my food on the way (breakfast, brunch, or lunch depending on the time of the day) from one of my favorite places, Alice's Tea Cup.  it's right in between of Hunter and the train station, a convenient place for buying something for quick relief of hunger.  Their scones are $3 each, and are amazing.  They have different flavors daily, all written down on the chalkboard in front of the store.  My school day doesn't start without an Alice's Tea Cup scone.  Their tea is also quite amazing, they have many differerent flavors and blends of organic tea.  Great for a wake up for an early class, especially the day after a long night of homework.  

In school, I spend most of my time either in class, or up and down these escalators.  For whatever reason, at least one floor of the escalators are ALWAYS broken.  I don't think I've had a single day here without a broken escalator.  Depending on the time of the day, it is also very crowded.  I've crunched up all my classes right after each other to save time for work and hang outs later on in the day, so this become quite a problem.  But what will Hunter do without escalators?  I'd never get to class on time without them.

Artist Statement

Media to me is expression; how a person expresses his or her ideas to the world.  It shows the world who and what you are through the use of music, film, art, words, etc.  I like to use the tool of music and film to express who I am.  Music to me is pure originality; using your voice or using your body to play an instrument is like letting a person see a part of you that can’t be explained in words, and to me, that is the core personality of me that I want people to see.  Film is the same way; watching one is like watching a story through eyes of different people.  Tim Burton is a director that I admire most because his movie expresses a world that only he can create.  I’d like my work to be the same way, something one can watch and know that it was me who made it without having to watch the credits.  I want to be someone a person would be interested in because of how original my past work was, and come see my new work from that.  I believe that individuality is what the media needs the most now, and I’d like to be someone in the media to help start the trend.
