The image that we saw in the Library (of a black and white figure reaching upwards as though they were drowning) spoke to us profoundly, as it symbolizes a struggle which we often endure in our inability to control our lives.
We understood it, but it didn’t really speak to us and we didn’t think it relates to CSI as it did not reflect any of the opportunities CSI often awards its students, and, on the contrary, indicated themes laced with desperation.
The work in question had no apparent meaning to any of us when we saw it. It did not invoke any emotion, and although we understood that it was about struggling and feeling stuck in place, it felt very out of place and juxtaposed within the campus library.
