Cooper Hewitt

My visit to the Cooper Hewitt museum was a great experience. I have been to museums, but none like this one. And sure, every museum is unique in its own way, however this one has been the most interesting by far.  The pens they have to record everything you see is amazing, I got to record my whole visit without having to take any pictures with my phone. Their type of art is a mix of graphic with industrial design. The best of all is that I can go anytime I want being a cuny student, which I will sure take advantage of.

A chromogenic print mounted on 3mm dibond. These are hairstyles inspired by history, art, music, and street style. It really caught my attention when I saw this because it is different, kind of scary looking but interesting to see.
