So, this week's compositions were varied. I really liked the art group's use of levels and surprise entrance. Kristin slowly rising as everyone else stood still was very interesting. I felt, however, that our composition was a bit of a disappointment.

I thought that drinking the blood of the Turkish was an obvious metaphor and that only partially burying "the dead" was also fairly blatantly conveyed. And that the vampire, as a figment of imagination, or flight of fancy, was a really good symbol for the forced integration: no one seems to think it is a "monster." I guess we just failed to make that clear.

Maybe next time we should chose something simpler.
