In this capstone project I depart from my traditional medium and subject matter to take a very personal approach to storytelling. I examine my past four years as a varsity athlete at Duke by collecting and editing my own story and the stories of my friends and classmates involved in Duke athletics. I am creating a portrait of sports that explores a different side to athletics than is usually told. This story relates to the broader themes of change, growing up, and adapting when things don’t go as planned.
