Swan Song / Final Project
The swan song is a metaphorical phrase for a final gesture, effort, or performance given just before death or retirement. (In this case, the end of the semester) The phrase refers to an ancient belief that swans sing a beautiful song just before their death, having been silent during most of their lifetime.
So this will be your final gesture, your printmaking opus.
I am NOT asking you to do a book with swans!!! and to be clear, I don't want to see books of swans for the final.
