THUNDER BAY — Jordan Simpson and Aubrey Hamilton say art has allowed them to not only express themselves, but also reflect on who they are.
The two Grade 10 students at Westgate Collegiate and Vocational Institute were two of 33 students who participated in the Dear Self Art Project, which is now on display at the Thunder Bay Art Gallery. Insp. Derek West with the Thunder Bay Police Service said the video featuring Shah and Arnold provided a very unique way of connecting with youth and encouraging them to think about themselves introspectively.
On Wednesday, an exhibition at the Thunder Bay Art Gallery featuring the works by the students was opened and awards were handed out. “I like the way everyone has a different way of expressing themselves,” Aubrey said. “It’s very interesting to see how people present themselves in art.” “If you think about art, just from a very base perspective, it’s a creative way to outlet your emotions. If students can rely on and use this as a way to channel what they are going through, that is 150 times better than any other negative outlet that they might be leaning on as a crutch when they might be going through some struggles,” he said.
