Zurich and Basel


Switzerland is going to be a mind opening experience. First I can’t wait to just experience the new cultural of a different country because it will make me a more well-rounded person as I learn different perspectives from different parts of the world. The food, the people, and the culture will be very different but I am very excited to experience them all. As an artists it is very important for me to experience as many different things as possible. By seeing different types of art I will be able to incorporate those experiences into my work.

               We will be going to huge art and design hot spots throughout Zurich and Basel which will be extremely education and eye opening. The museum in Zurich will help me see other examples of artists’ works which I am really looking forward to seeing because it will help me improve my own work, my pulling from what they have done in the past. I am also very excited to see the resources at the Basel School of design, like the libray that has so many books on design and art, and the poster collection that not only keeps track of the culture and history of the country but also the art style during different periods of time. I am also excited to go see some of the exciting attractions that we’re presented like the interactive sculpture garden, and the beautiful terrain. Over all I am very excited for all the different things I am going to experience in these towns and I think I learn so much as a designer on this trip.
