Abstract:
This thesis utilizes collaboration to confront the experience of marginalization across a
wide spectrum of human experiences. I collaborated with, incorporated lines from, and
responded to writing and artwork from a variety of sources. My main sources came from
published poets, new stories, local artists, friends, and my immediate family. The purpose
of this collaborative thesis was to explore a gallery of artistic voices around the theme of
marginalization. My goal was to allow others’ artistic expression about marginalization to
inform my curatorial response in the creation of this gallery of voices.
