The BSS Youth in the Artist Statement workshop have been reviewing and interpreting each other's work. They have been reading contemporary writings and researching creative thinkers, while becoming familiar with the subconscious inspirations and individual influences that play a roll in their art making.

In analyzing their work the young artists are working to reveal ideas about the who, what, when, where, whys and hows that are relevant to their individual artistic process. The class encourages students to use written word to articulate and interpret concepts, which in turn serves as a personal dialect for them to share with the world. With the help of each other and Christine, they are learning to translate their creative motivations into a more universal language.
