Students will use the process of printmaking to create personal works of art. Students will investigate the history and processes of printmaking. Exploring traditional approaches to printmaking, students will create innovative products.

Students learn about how computers represent data visually and how artists have used self portraits with symbolism to represent themselves. Then students will create their own data selfies including adding their names written in binary code. Written descriptions will be added to display alongside their artworks that will detail their data symbols and what their artwork says about them and how it relates to computer science. 

This dynamic exhibition features artwork and artifacts that portray the spirit of Virginia - its past, its present, its landscape, and its people. The Art Experience at the Executive Mansion was designed in collaboration with artists, museums, and curators throughout the Commonwealth to educate, excite and inspire those who visit. The exhibition highlights works from a mix of genres and mediums with particular focus on Virginia artists and themes. It is a living display which will evolve and change over time as additional works of art become available and as different parts of the Virginia story become the focus.
