Visual Essay

“Imagine that you have to make an argument or explain an idea to someone using only images and no words. Construct a brief “visual essay,” in which you use a limited number of images (approximately 5 to 10) to make an argument or explain a particular idea. […] The purpose of this assignment is to explore how images/objects can be used to actually make a point, or advance an argument.”
