As a class during Freshman Seminar, we went to a lot of different workshops this year. Out of all of them, I think that the one I liked best was the Rubin Museum of Art. This particular exhibit seemed boring at first, and I was pretty reluctant to go. However, once I went, I quickly found that it was a very interesting museum. The statues and sculptures were all very intriguing and it seemed like I was being transported back in time. I especially liked the exhibit of the worship shrine in another person’s home. The candles and the statues everywhere made for a crazy image, and it was one of the most peaceful places I’ve ever seen in my entire life. From a personal perspective, the shrine or worship center resonated with me because I’ve seen places like that before due to the fact that my great grandma was a Buddhist, and I’ve visited her before in Korea. This experience to the museum inspired me to not have tunnel vision, and to explore and learn about different cultures and artifacts of the world. We are all so small, but yet we live in such an immense world and this museum inspired me to learn as much about the world at large as I can during my lifetime.
