Write an analysis of one of these three images. You may compare it to one or both of the other images, but this is not required (approximately 300 words)

Share one image that gives a sense of your current aesthetic sensibilities, concerns, obsessions, etc. It can be any visual media, such as, but not limited to, painting, photography, film stills, drawings, maps…

This is optional

Share a non-fiction writing sample (500 words minimum). Preferably a work of criticism, but not necessarily so. It can be published or unpublished. (Note: A writing sample may help, but its absence will not hurt your application.)
