​
Lore within Lore is |drÄ“m|sÄ“d|’s back story to the 75 Years of Iowa Art exhibit from a Latinx student perspective. Student artists reflect on the different sections within the exhibit and created a piece that expands the era and motif with their representation of history and imagery that is often overlooked by the general population.
There is a second story hidden within the lore, paying homage to a Latina artist whose death remains questionable.
