For my artistic response, I decide to do a collage which uses some of the illustrations from Sherman’s Alexie’s novel, The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian. I chose to use red and white stripes as the background being implied that the main character in the novel, Junior had a very difficult time of being recognized by either the Native American tribe or the Whites at school. And for some the pieces, I decided to put blue tape on the collage which can refer to the book, because that’s the way how the author, Sherman Alexie did in his book. Overall, I am glad that I am now having a better understanding of Native Americans and appreciated that I was given the chance to do so in this class.
Very cool :)
