Problems With Immigrantion

https://www.heritage.org/immigration/report/the-real-problem-immigration-and-the-real-solution


Immigrant should be handle properly without the harm and the violence but to find a better solution between the two sides. Because at the end of the day we are all humans of this planet.  It shouldn't cause people their lives to come here. We should all free some type of freedom when coming to the US.

Art Spiegelman's "A Warm Welcome," 2015. CreditPortrait by Phil Penman.
 I first saw the Statue of Liberty in October 1950 while perched high on my father’s shoulders. My parents, survivors of Hitler’s death camps, had been granted immigration visas to the United States, and all the passengers were crowded on the foredeck of the Gripsholm as we approached the harbor. I was less than 3 years old when my father excitedly pointed at the giant lady standing in the water to welcome us to New York. I was suitably awed until we got closer and was disappointed to see that she was “just” a statue.


Edel Rodriguez's “Strangers,” 2018.CreditPortrait by Deborah Feingold
Boat people, that’s what many immigrants are considered. I was one of them, a refugee. I understand that welcoming strangers can be dangerous. Throughout history, many countries have sent their best, as well as their worst, to the United States. Irish gangs and the Italian Mafia, among many other criminal groups, flourished here soon after their arrival. We have always lived with the dangers of accepting foreigners, and we have always dealt with them, knowing that those are the risks a country must assume if it is to be a beacon to the entire world. This country now seems scared to take risks on foreigners, to bet on the possibility that the next boat full of strangers might be full of greatness.

My artwork takes a critical view of social, identity and cultural issues. In my work, I deconstruct the American dream, for an Undocumented Child in search of his identity. I engage the subject in a kneeling position, a symbol of being afraid to show his identity. In the artwork America is split off from Mexico to represent the borderlands of two cultures. The color red represents the struggles to identity. Bold text in the piece is represented on the Dreamer and throughout the drawing to symbolize the power of words. I am undocumented, it is my identity. In the drawing the main theme is a journey to find an identity. When people see my piece I want them to relate to the struggle of finding an identity. The identity in the piece is, I am Mexican the origin, Undocumented the circumstance, American the future.

Doodle New

  These are my three doodles. They respresent something about me. One represents my dream job and what I want to be. The  other represents my favorite food and how cool it is. The finally my last doodle is my most important item that I have.  I enjoyed  drawing all three and hoping to give them wonderful colors.

TIME

        At first I was making up my ideas and drawing them. After that didn't work I was inspire by a day and night clock style. But that also failed on me. Finally my last drawings were inspired by the Maya Numerals. It had a unique number pattern that I could use. The rest click from there and gave me my finally idea for my clock.

Product Launch



                                                               Signature Cookies
  My product is one the best cookie base products out there. My company AMP provides nothing but best in every cookie we make. It took a lot of hard work getting this cookie company up and I'm proud of how it came out. I'm glad it's getting media attention and I'm also glad that a lot of celebrities enjoy my cookies. I wanted something that screamed seriously good cookies that's why I went with the colors black, green, white and purple as the brand colors.

   My inspiration would have to be my parents for teaching me to believe in my goals. Coming up with the website felt difficult but overtime working on it was enjoyable. There was a lot of good ideas that went to making this website. I really enjoy the details that went it and how the finally product came out. I want my audience to see that I'm providing them great service and a smile every time they take a bite and enjoy a AMP cookie.
