This class changed everything for me. Design III: Time was the first time I was truly pushed to experiment, to mix visuals with emotion, and to turn my ideas into pure expression. We weren’t just assigned projects—we were told to create something real using who we are.

These are the three projects I made:

Obsession & Repetition – A visual metaphor about overthinking. I created a character who walks through life wearing an astronaut helmet—lost in their head, disconnected from the world. Only when they take it off do they start to live in the present again.

Wearable Art (Inspired by David Bowie) – Bowie has always inspired me—his style, his freedom, his unapologetic weirdness. I used his song Life on Mars to explore how we get trapped in screens, in performance, in needing to be “seen.” I used fashion, movement, and spacey visuals to celebrate breaking out of that.

Sound – For the last project, we could only use sound as our prompt. I made a piece about how music shapes our emotions and memories. Rock, spanish music, pop—each moment shows how music has helped me and my family feel something, heal something, or just keep going.

This class helped me figure out what kind of stories I want to tell—and how to tell them in my own voice.
