Visual

In my visual representation, I have chose to represent the theme of disappearances and mystery with my teaching statement, " teaching the mirage to appear." In my visual, I have quotations from the book on the left side, and significant pictures on the right. The quotations I've chosen are important parts in the book because they all tie into the theme of disappearing. Throughout the novel, we are given subtle hints to mysteries in the book, such as saying that the bridge looks whole and complete , but isn't. The reason that I put some pictures up is because I feel that they are more important. The church is very symbolic of how native culture has decreased, and that by painting the church, they are hiding an ugly part of the past. I added MIA because we never for sure found out who she was. She shaped who auntie Cassie became, and held alot of family secrets. I added a girl symbol because it is there to represent Rebecca, a ghost character. I think she was important as a character because she represented the Cherokee tribes that had been wiped out. I chose to do my project as a poster because I wanted to include the quotations I thought were important, as well as the pictures that I chose. I made a highway because it is mostly on highways that mirages appear, also because I wanted to include the "re" words and I thought that the would go well on the yellow dividers. I purposely made the sky blue with nice clouds because of the quote "teaching the sky about blue"
