Does RHS Need More Art Around The School?
As a student at RHS, one of the things I heard being voiced the most by the student body was the disappointment of the graffiti bathroom being painted over. I specifically remember everyone commenting on how they thought the graffiti bathroom was the most artistic and creative piece the school had. So that brings me to question: Does RHS need more visual art hung and presented around our school? Senior Zaid Hernandez-Chino feels there should be more art around the school. ΜThey should put up more things on the wall, I feel like it could add more color, adding murals would also make the school feel more like home, Μ Hernandez-Chino said. Art is known to bring emotional power, students at RHS appreciated the graffiti bathroom not simply because it was a beauty to look at but because of the emotional power the mural held. Each student had their own sense of connection with the mural, which in some way made the school feel like home. Now listen in to the interview with Zaid Hernandez-Chino about his personal experiences and liking to art.
