Shifting Beauties

Class of: 2024

Major: Fashion Design BFA

Medium: Paper

Faculty: Seminar: Anya Kurennaya / Studio: Jennifer Mazza

Prompt: We were asked to make a zine about "shift". A zine is a self-made book with collages and texts in it.

This is a zine about the beautiful things shifting in the world. In the story I turned into a little cat and had the freedom to feel the beauties in the world. I wrote down my thoughts in the zine and made collages. This project is inspired by my peers’ collections, my collections, and our visiting artist.

Parsons School of Design has offered students innovative approaches to education since its founding in 1896. Today we’re the only American art and design school within a comprehensive university, The New School, which also houses a rigorous liberal arts college and a progressive performing arts school. Our undergraduate and graduate programs, offered through Parsons’ five schools, immerse students in focused training, interdisciplinary inquiry, and practice-based collaborative learning. Here creators and scholars master established art and design fields and advance emerging ones while studying a range of university disciplines.
