INTRODUCTION: The Duke Ellington School of the Arts Museum Studies Department presents PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS, an underclassmen virtual exhibit utilizing the layout of a triptych. Historically triptychs are a picture or relief carving on three panels, typically hinged together side by side and used as an altarpiece related to religious practice. The Museum Studies Department has modernized this interpretation to center the idea of happiness. For many, the years 2020 and 2021 have been filled with pain and negativity brought on by the pandemic and societal ills. In response to living in and through the chaos and extreme existence of isolation from family, friends and the school environment, we created a visual representation of individual joys under a collective theme. With this exhibit you may take a deeper look into the minds of Museum Studies Department students to find what truly makes us happy.

Catherine Morris

ARTIST: Catherine Morris, Museum Studies Class of 2024 • TITLE: Great Falls • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

CATHERINE MORRIS ARTIST STATEMENT: Nothing makes me happier than being surrounded by nature. With this photograph of my dad and my sister climbing at Great Falls, I can still smell the trees and hear the sound of the rushing river below us.

Maia Snotherly

ARTIST: Maia Snotherly, Museum Studies Class of 2024 • TITLE: Loss of Love Language • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

MAIA SNOTHERLY ARTIST STATEMENT: Everyone has a love language, words of affirmation, quality time, physical touch, acts of service, and receiving gifts. This is how you show your love, and the best ways for others to express their love to you. Throughout the Covid-19 pandemic the loss of touch is the most obvious love language that quickly became unavailable. As someone who relies on touch almost completely to show and receive affection and appreciation, I suddenly began to feel very lonely. The loss of physical touch showed me its importance and how much it improves my quality of life. Physical touch is and will always be a part of my happiness.

Brandon Marshall

ARTIST: Brandon Marshall, Museum Studies Class of 2022 • TITLE: Good Days • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

BRANDON MARSHALL ARTIST STATEMENT: Good Days is a panoramic photograph taken during a photo shoot with my sister. We were outside with the bright blue sky and the shining sun. The words “Good days on my mind” come from SZA’s song appropriately titled, “Good Days.” As I was taking pictures, basking in the sunlight, and feeling the wind on my face; the world almost felt normal. I had forgotten that we’re still in a pandemic. I was hopeful that with vaccines coming, the world is starting to feel normal again. When I captured this moment with my sister, good days were indeed on my mind.

Likuye Mvebe

ARTIST: Likuye Mvebe, Museum Studies Class of 2024 • TITLE: CPT • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

LIKUYE MVEBE ARTIST STATEMENT: My triptych CPT presents photographs of the place in which I am most happy — my home, Cape Town (aka CPT). Cape Town is a huge draw for tourists but the photographs I take of Cape Town are not like those captured by a tourist. I am drawn to small details that may be overlooked by the average person. I am looking for the unexpected, an ironic twist, things one might not expect. I photograph symbols that have personal significance for me and bring me a sense of happiness.

Cecilia Lapetina

ARTIST: Cecilia Lapetina, Museum Studies Class of 2024 • TITLE: Self-Expression • MEDIUM: Digital Graphics Triptych

CECILIA LAPETINA ARTIST STATEMENT: For me, self-expression and the pursuit of happiness are strongly connected. I believe an important factor in self-expression is discovering, defining, and knowing yourself. Self-Expression presents three digitally drawn self-portraits differentiated by color. This triptych represents the potential for everything I can be and that my pursuit of happiness is my own unique journey.

Melani Perdomo

ARTIST: Melani Perdomo, Museum Studies Class of 2024 • TITLE: Innocence | Joy | Laughter • MEDIUM: Digital Graphics Triptych

MELANI PERDOMO ARTIST STATEMENT: For me, family is my happy place. Being able to make memories with the people that I love and to interpret them through my digital art is to cherish them. This triptych compresses all the precious memories made throughout my childhood with the most important people in my life into symbols. The swing represents my childhood; the Dominican flag with the letters S and P represent both sides of my family (Soriano and Perdomo); and lastly 2010, the year I met my two best friends (my chosen family).

Bailey Allen

ARTIST: Bailey Allen, Museum Studies Class of 2023 • TITLE: Night Lights • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

BAILEY ALLEN ARTIST STATEMENT: As someone living with anxiety and depression, mental health and well-being is very important. When I’m going through rough times, I think about being surrounded by water and light. In this quiet place, I am calm, present, and aware that I am loved and not alone. Pursuit of Happiness to me means the lifelong process of finding what brings you peace and joy.

Emmette Hill

ARTIST: Emmette Hill, Museum Studies Class of 2024 • TITLE: Peaceful Place • MEDIUM: Digital Graphics Triptych

EMMETTE HILL ARTIST STATEMENT: This Pandemic has been a challenging experience to say the least. I have felt a wide range of emotions that often make me feel overwhelmed. Being stuck at home and forced to look at everything that's going on in the world through a screen is quite draining and oftentimes I need an escape. Watching anime and playing video games gave me that reprieve. I began to create anime and video game inspired digital drawings to imagine a world where I felt safe and in control. Drawing is now my coping mechanism to overcome challenges. This work gives me a sense of calm and pleasure and has come to encompass my Pursuit of Happiness.

Kendall Harley

ARTIST: Kendall Harley, Museum Studies Class of 2024 • TITLE: Spiral • MEDIUM: Digital Painting Triptych

KENDALL HARLEY ARTIST STATEMENT: My digital piece for the Pursuit of Happiness exhibition is titled Spiral. In many ancient cultures, spirals are meant to represent a long winding journey where you discover more about yourself. I utilized Photoshop's oil painting brush pack to create a large spiral in the middle of the Earth that depicts a path leading my soul towards evolution and growth — an adventure that has not yet met its end.

Jonathan Fuentes-Pastora

ARTIST: Jonathan Fuentes-Pastora, Museum Studies Class of 2022 • TITLE: At Home • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

JONATHAN FUENTES-PASTORA ARTIST STATEMENT: The warm feeling I get from El Salvador does not only come from the heat of the sun. When I am there I am inspired by the tradition of hard work from 4am to 7pm, and then to do it all over the next day and the next. Finding purpose in helping families have a better life makes me happy.

Juanita Valdes

ARTIST: Juanita Valdes, Museum Studies Class of 2022 • TITLE: Momentary Lapse of Happiness • MEDIUM: Mixed Media Digital Drawing Triptych

JUANITA VALDES ARTIST STATEMENT: Throughout this quarantine, I have been observing a lot about myself and the environment. With this time, given to me through Covid, I have created art pieces to replicate the recurring phases of my life. The first piece is Annihilation. This occurs after an unexpected, life changing, event comes to pass. Annihilation means “the state or fact of being completely destroyed or obliterated or self-destruction". The second is Sonder. This means, “the realization that each passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own". This occurs as I slowly regress or reach an understanding of my annihilation. The third phase is Adolescence. In this phase, I come to a mature state from annihilation to tolerance and a better understanding of events. Together, these phases create a Momentary Lapse of Happiness.

Etianna Prophete

ARTIST: Etianna Prophete, Museum Studies Class of 2024 • TITLE: Reinvent • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

ETIANNA PROPHETE ARTIST STATEMENT: My triptych Reinvent includes three digital photographs taken at the Anacostia Park in D.C. At first glance, my images are perceived simply as construction scenes. Beneath the surface, I connect these pictures to reinventing certain aspects of my life. Isolation has left me with countless hours to analyze who I really am. There are many of my characteristics that I like and many that I strongly dislike. Instead of moping around all day, every day (which is what I often feel like doing) I utilized the time to build better habits and create a new-and-improved version of myself. Part of my Pursuit of Happiness is the ability to reset and discover new things that bring me joy.

Emilia Rose Baltazar

ARTIST: Emilia Rose Baltazar, Museum Studies Class of 2024 • TITLE: Emerge • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

EMILIA ROSE BALTAZAR ARTIST STATEMENT: I like to keep my hands busy and my favorite materials within my reach. Fiber-based materials are important to my practice – paper and natural textiles mostly. I often discover what I am making after I start. Cutting and folding paper for signatures in a book is often the first step. I work with recycled material, cereal boxes for book covers, parts of old books for accents, because being careful with what nature gives us is important to me. I sew books. I sew signatures to their enclosure. I sew fabric, too. Rough linen from hardware stores (drop cloth) makes volumes more often seen in fine silk, like a skirt or dress gathered at the top for an empire waist. My work takes unexpected turns as I cut and sew and start to see a shape I like. Whether it is functional or not, the form emerges as I work.

Kirk Thomas

ARTIST: Kirk Thomas, Museum Studies Class of 2024 • TITLE: Bigger Than Me • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

KIRK THOMAS ARTIST STATEMENT: When I see tall trees in a forest, I marvel to think that they have been here on earth longer than me. I challenged myself to capture the beauty of these trees and the sense of freedom and happiness I feel in nature.

Xochitl Biles

ARTIST: Xochitl Biles, Museum Studies Class of 2023 • TITLE: Field Trip • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

XOCHITL BILES ARTIST STATEMENT: The photos presented were all taken during a field trip at my old school. Going on those trips with my friends was almost always exciting. In moments of stillness, I thought about the present time, the people I was around, and the feeling of safety they brought. Rather than recording the main events, I wanted to have evidence of reflection and peace. I would stop to capture something that could bring those memories forward so that I may hold on to what brought me the most happiness.

Kayla Brackett

ARTIST: Kayla Brackett, Museum Studies Class of 2022 • TITLE: Plant Mother • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

KAYLA BRACKETT ARTIST STATEMENT: During the initial lockdown stages of this pandemic, it was hard for me to see my friends or participate in my usual hobbies. I felt envious when I saw others take up new activities such as skating or drawing with ease, because I couldn’t find something for me. I asked for plants for my seventeenth birthday. I received two bamboo plants (Bree and Bambi), a money treen (Tara), and a Calathea Ornata (Marcey). It was here that my journey of plant motherhood started and it has expanded to the adoption of a snake plant (Solana), a small succulent plant (Tatianna) and a pencil cactus (Paris). For my piece, I decided to submit a family portrait of my plants. One of the three photos features Tara, my oldest plant, and then the rest of the plants all together. By caring for plants, I have been able to be more patient and study the body language of living things.

Sidney Gayle

ARTIST: Sidney Gayle, Museum Studies Class of 2023 • TITLE: Simple Happiness • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

SIDNEY GAYLE ARTIST STATEMENT: My piece titled Simple Happiness is a series of photos showing how happiness can be achieved through simple things. The photographs in Simple Happiness represent the happiness that I can feel when I get a chance to see my friends or family. The pandemic has made it difficult to meet up with people which can make me feel pretty sad at times, so whenever I get the chance to meet with friends or even family, it's refreshing and brightens my mood, even though meeting with people is usually such a normal and simple thing. Simple things can still bring happiness.

Adasyn Fleming

ARTIST: Adasyn Fleming, Museum Studies Class of 2024 • TITLE: Black Love • MEDIUM: Painting on Canvas Triptych

ADASYN FLEMING ARTIST STATEMENT: Black Love was inspired by experiences and the people that I interact with everyday — those who uplift me and keep me going during dark times. In these paintings on canvas I depict my two little cousins, Jamari and Jada; my big sister, Hunter Breeze; my niece, Harvie Cleora; and my two best friends, Azaria and Isis. During this pandemic, I truly believe these relationships grew stronger. With a commitment to the pursuit of happiness, we had to be there for each other when we were each going through our own personal obstacles.

Etianna Prophete

ARTIST: Etianna Prophete, Museum Studies Class of 2024 • TITLE: The Smiling Game • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

ETIANNA PROPHETE ARTIST STATEMENT: My triptych, The Smiling Game, includes a digital photograph of a simple smiley-faced maze that I received as a gift. One day, I decided to tape it to my sage-green desk for a quick photoshoot. These images symbolize the complicated journey toward happiness. There are always many roadblocks that try to stop you during your pursuit, though it is crucial that you find a way to move past them.

Averi MacAlester

ARTIST: Averi MacAlester, Museum Studies Class of 2024 • TITLE: Together Again • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Collage Triptych

AVERI MACALESTER ARTIST STATEMENT: My family is a huge source for my happinesses. Divided between Washington, DC and Arizona, we cherish those fleeting moments when we can be together. Together Again presents collaged photographs of my family reunited during the pandemic. When we are together and immersed in nature, my world is full of color and life.

Sarah Albanai

ARTIST: Sarah Albanai, Museum Studies Class of 2023 • TITLE: Around the Bend • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

SARAH ALBANAI ARTIST STATEMENT: My photographic triptych Around the Bend is a reminder of how nurturing and peaceful Mother Nature can be. These photos are arranged to reflect a story of the life cycle of nature. Guarded by the sunlight and basking in the fresh air, the flowers and plants support the sky. When in these environments, a sense of healing and euphoric sensations come to light and that’s what the pursuit of happiness means to me.

Noelle Heard

ARTIST: Noelle Heard, Museum Studies Class of 2022 • TITLE: Eternal Paralysis • MEDIUM: Digital Video Stills Triptych

NOELLE HEARD ARTIST STATEMENT: When making this video, I found myself losing hope. Not only with myself, but with humanity. I asked myself “How am I supposed to be happy when living in a world like this?” Every year things get worse. I feel alone in this world. I feel envious of the people who can feel happy in this stained world, when we all know that they're in pain. Many are covering up the pain to meet everyone else's standards of what a teen should be. They expect us to do the greatest things, yet they limit our ability to make our own choices. As a teen, I don't feel like “fixing” the adults in my life and making up for what I feel are their mistakes. These are the demons that we have to face-- the expectations of other people and the weight that carries.

Olivia deChambeau

ARTIST: Olivia deChambeau, Museum Studies Class of 2023 • TITLE: Certainty • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

OLIVIA DECHAMBEAU ARTIST STATEMENT: Plants rank high on the list of things that make me happy. Looking at plants, I can’t help but notice that they always seem to have their lives together. They seem to just exist — they aren’t weighed down by stress and already know what to do as soon as they start growing. In a way, I think this mindset can be considered a type of happiness. Knowing and setting goals for yourself so you can always have a clear view of what you want to do can improve your attitude and give you a sense of satisfaction. This idea makes me calm and peaceful to just be lost in a world of green.

Kelly Stewart

ARTIST: Kelly Stewart, Museum Studies Class of 2022 • TITLE: AG • MEDIUM: Digital Collage Triptych

KELLY STEWART ARTIST STATEMENT: I found it hard to maintain my artistic skills throughout quarantine with everything else that has been going on. It was a challenge, but I ventured out of my comfort zone and find new, art- related hobbies. I tried things such as embroidery, sewing, painting, but the activity that gave me the most fulfilled was the experimentation with Photoshop. Creating an image in my head and then onto a computer, was helpful to my ability to expand my creativity level. I appropriated photos of my biggest inspiration, vocalist Ariana Grande, and then manipulated them to challenge myself artistically. I added some of her lyrics to the images for emphasis.

Makayla Herrington

ARTIST: Makayla Herrington, Museum Studies Class of 2022 • TITLE: Something About Change • MEDIUM: Acrylic on Canvas Triptych

MAKAYLA HERRINGTON ARTIST STATEMENT: Something about Change is a series of paintings displaying life from childhood to adulthood. When you are a child, the world is bright and hopeful. You have a world of things to look forward to and you experience life with so much optimism. As you mature, your reality becomes dull as you leave your childhood behind and start toward your future. This is where you see the world differently. As a child, I saw things as better than they were. Now that I am getting older, and see things for what they are, I am learning to accept them. I also yearn for the future without knowing what is in store for me.

Jalisa Lott

ARTIST: Jalisa Lott , Museum Studies Class of 2023 • TITLE: Tranquility • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

JALISA LOTT ARTIST STATEMENT: Tranquility represents what I feel, what makes me happy and makes me feel at ease. Peace makes me happy and makes me feel at ease. Calm brings me comfort. I decided to increase the saturation of my photos to make the colors more vibrant to create a sense of happiness.

Scholar Blango

ARTIST: Scholar Blango, Museum Studies Class of 2024 • TITLE: Lacrosse • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

SCHOLAR BLANGO ARTIST STATEMENT: My piece is a diagonal triptych with a soft color palette. I like to use vibrant colors in my photos, but with this piece, I felt that grey tones would make the Lacrosse player stand out. My work is a representation of one of my happy places, Lacrosse. This piece is personal to me because the jersey of the player, in the photo, is from my first lacrosse team. This is where I learned to play and gained a best friend.

Nailah Brown

ARTIST: Nailah Brown, Museum Studies Class of 2022 • TITLE: Gounded • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

NAILAH BROWN ARTIST STATEMENT: Skateboarding is a way to calm myself down and clear my head. I started skateboarding in the 7th grade. I would use my skateboard to get to the bus stop faster, have fun during lunch, and to get home from the bus stop. It became a large part of my daily routine, and I realized I was happier skating. I began to associate skating with happiness, and on rainy days, I would be disappointed and hope that the rain would go away. Quarantine became another one of those things that hindered my skating. My motivation for skating typically came from my need to get somewhere, or to calm down, but now I don’t go many places. These pieces help me to express the happiness I feel when I skate.

Patrick Du-Bois

ARTIST: Patrick Du-Bois, Museum Studies Class of 2022 • TITLE: Art in Motion • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

PATRICK DU-BOIS ARTIST STATEMENT: I started a small business sharing my art on an item that we use constantly, our phones. I made custom phone cases for my friends and they helped me spread the word. Each cover was designed to fit the owner's personality. Making these covers made me realize that I could also branch out on to other things such as album covers. The covers that I create are designed to spread positivity with joyful colors to help lift the mood of the viewer.

Ayonlah Carter

ARTIST: Ayonlah Carter, Museum Studies Class of 2022 • TITLE: Twenty-Four • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

AYONLAH CARTER ARTIST STATEMENT: Twenty-Four is a series inspired by the 24 hours we are given in a day. I took some time to really reflect on the year we’ve had and how it seems that we are on our way to recovery. I wanted to express how much time we may have lost due to the pandemic and how grateful I am to still be here. Throughout the day, I took photos of the sky- - morning, noon and night. These images reflect how, even though times may get hard and overwhelming, time never stops and the sun always comes back to shine. Tomorrow is another opportunity for improvement, but tomorrow isn't always promised. Be grateful.

William Bryan

ARTIST: William Bryan, Museum Studies Class of 2022 • TITLE: Look Up • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

WILLIAM BRYAN ARTIST STATEMENT: The sky is probably the most consistent thing in life. At any point, from birth to death, we can look up and gaze into the bright and mysterious atmosphere, miles and miles above us. Personally, when I look up, seeing a “pretty” sky feels oddly calming and helps me realize just how small I am on our gigantic, floating rock. Whether walking out of school after an exhausting day (first piece),or on vacation (second piece), or from the comfort of my own bedroom (third piece), these moments allow me to sit back and reflect on everything that brings me happiness.

Meggy Doni

ARTIST: Meggy Doni, Museum Studies Class of 2023 • TITLE: Moment • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

MEGGY DONI ARTIST STATEMENT: I like to capture the essence of certain moments in my photography. I tried my best in this sequence of photos to convey how serene and joyful this particular moment was. The sun was setting, as you may see projected on the boat. There were ducks and geese all around me, as I mingled with my friends. The view was beautiful. I have noticed that since being quarantined, my appreciation of my surroundings has been heightened. During simple moments like these, I feel the need to document the scene just for the sake of it. Every moment is valuable and should be cherished.

Arundhati Eidinger

ARTIST: Arundhati Eidinger, Museum Studies Class of 2022 • TITLE: Daydreaming, Reaching, Wandering • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

ARUNDHATI EIDINGER ARTIST STATEMENT: Looking forward is something often associated with having a positive outlook. Saying, “I look forward to seeing you this afternoon.” implies that you already are familiar with the person you are meeting. Similarly, if someone says, “I can’t wait for our trip!” implies that you are so ready to experience the trip, that you can hardly wait for tomorrow to come. Although we set ourselves up for perfect days, nights, afternoons, dates, trips, business meetings and social gatherings, this sense of knowing before experiencing, is a failed logic. If we set up our weeks, months, years and lifetimes with exclusively perfect, smooth sailing, wondrous encounters, we are bound to be disappointed. This is not genuine disappointment; this is from expecting that everything will be perfect.

Ryan Turner

ARTIST: Ryan Turner, Museum Studies Class of 2022 • TITLE: The Night • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

RYAN TURNER ARTIST STATEMENT: For my piece, I wanted to showcase the night, and the things I see when I'm alone. Being alone is my form of happiness. These photos remind me of being by myself, and peacefully enjoying the solitude. The photos replicate the feeling of a good loneliness and silence, a comfortable silence. Being alone doesn’t always need to mean that you are sad, but being alone can feel great, if you want. It brings me happiness to be alone most of the time, and I try to hold on to that feeling for as long as I can. This is one of my personal meanings of happiness.

JaNai Redd

ARTIST: JaNai Redd, Museum Studies Class of 2022 • TITLE: Beauty and Relief • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

JANAI REDD ARTIST STATEMENT: My piece reflects how darkness can be shaped into anything. While sinking into my own sadness, I pushed beyond that feeling to produce a shape of substance. This triptych is my tribute to art as therapy. My sadness has been shaped into Beauty and Relief.

April Kilpatrick

ARTIST: April Kilpatrick, Museum Studies Class of 2024 • TITLE: Last Day of Summer • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

APRIL KILPATRICK ARTIST STATEMENT: I have always dreamed of immersing myself within both Japanese and Korean culture in order to understand the histories and traditions more deeply. The video game "Animal Crossing" serves as a way for me to immerse myself on an imaginary island where both cultures can exist in the same place and not clash. In the virtual realm, I am able to control how the cultures interact with each other, how my island looks, and how others perceive me via my "Animal Crossing" persona.

My triptych titled The Last Day of Summer presents digitally manipulated screenshots captured in my "Animal Crossing" island. They demonstrate the fleeting feeling of freedom summer gives me and the happiness that comes with it.

Kanihya Glover

ARTIST: Kanihya Glover, Museum Studies Class of 2024 • TITLE: Sister Love • MEDIUM: Digital Photography Triptych

KANIHYA GLOVER ARTIST STATEMENT: Sister Love represents my purpose in life — the reason why I keep going every day. Comfort, love, kindness, joy, and laughter-- my sisters have been there for me on my worst days and on my happy days. We have cried, we have laughed, we have sung, we have danced… together; they are the cinnamon to my apple, and the jelly to my peanut butter. We are the definition of love and sisterhood.
