An icon is an image that refers to something outside of its individual elements, something or someone that has great symbolic meaning for society. Icons are often perceived to represent universal concepts, emotions, and meanings.

“Where justice is denied, where poverty is enforced, where ignorance prevails, and where any one class is made to feel that society is an organized conspiracy to oppress, rob and degrade them, neither persons nor property will be safe”( Douglass).

This semester we were supposed to go see a piece of art and for the convenient factor I went to the Weil Gallery located on the first floor of the Center for the Arts on campus. Unfortunately I couldn’t take a selfie with it because they didn’t allow pictures so I just took a quick sneaky picture of the piece of art by itself. The piece I choose was made by Michael Scoggins in December 25, 2011, with a colored pencil on a gigantic piece of notebook paper about the size of an average person six feet .Well actually all the pieces were made by him as this gallery was his view of America.
