About Bodies

While working on this year’s publication, Christine and I noticed many examples of self-expression in work that was turned in. There also seemed to be a release from some of society’s pressures, as well as a greater sense of self-acceptance. This led us to title the issue “Bodies.”  This was one way to represent the ever changing differences that make individuals unique. We live in a dark and gray world, but our differences brings brightness to the world. “Bodies” not only represents our anatomy but serves as an outline for everything we go through. We aimed to point out that there’s no shame expressing who we are and sharing positive and negative experiences that make us who we are. This issue of Prism can remind us that we’re all made up of the same, basic components and that we’re in charge of who we want to be and how we want to be seen.

About Crossroads

We all found ourselves at a crossroad this year—an intersection between our remote lives and our hustling, in-person livelihood that once seemed completely normal. It challenged us to think, but more importantly, it incited us to change. Prism went through its own changes, some of which you can see here digitally (but we also encourage you to pick up a physical copy on stands at OSU). Each decision we made was with intention, keeping our artists and readers in mind as we strove to create something exciting and new. We hope this edition inspires you and that no matter what crossroads you encounter, you keep telling your stories.
