Bleeding beauty
Whenever one thinks of the Middle East, they will most likely think of the negative events that have occurred. Such as the acts of terrorists, the current conflicts that exist within that central area, and the issue of there only being one type of belief. Throughout this project, our goal was to become more enlightened on the subject so that we don't only think of these things. Instead we focused on the beauties that exist within those areas and the culture that surrounds them. We got to learn about the way in which some of of their architecture is created and the way in which their society works. This was a big project that took up our art class as well because one of our final products was to be a placemat that would be presented at a Lebanese restaurant. We also wrote a paper about one specific topic that interested us and how it applied within a place such as the Middle East. Overall it allowed us to change our original beliefs about the Middle East and learn that there isn't only violence and negativity in that area.
