Rich Latin American oral traditions inspired an interdisciplinary exchange between students in Legends and Mythology, taught by Professor Inbal Mazar, and students in the painting classes of Professor Angela Battle. Des Moines community members shared legends from the Latin American regions they grew up in with Mazar’s students, who then transcribed and translated them for artists to interpret into paintings. Both forms of expression are exhibited side by side, along with information about the participants.
