Students in the class Anthropology 3450W, Anthropological Perspectives, have created an insightful online exhibition titled Beyond the Screen and Back.

What happens when 19 Gen Z students at a public university visit a museum of fine arts?  Stripped away from our addiction to phones and artificial lives on social media, we are compelled to reflect through the art on our own baggage. The artworks we gravitated towards were eclectic. We found an oasis at the Benton Museum of Art. Shamelessly, we felt. Stunningly, we all individually projected our melancholic state onto the unfamiliar. In our Instagram exhibition, we reveal our privileges, our outlook on the world and, ultimately, our humanity.
