Cave Art in Masterpieces of Western Religious Art

Today, students in Molleen Dupree-Dominguez’s Masterpieces of Western Religious Art course installed their cave art exhibition. Students studied various cave art that scientists have discovered, and they have learned about various theories on the spirituality behind cave art.

They created symbols to represent their spiritual questions and spiritual stories. Then they illustrated these symbols and stories on paper in the Living Lab, using natural materials like dirt, fruits, vegetables, flowers, as well as chalk.
