When the project was assigned I struggled to come up with a theme for the collage.\u00a0\u00a0however, my friends suggested I\u00a0embrace the Halloween season and explore witches! Immediately nuns stood out as their polar opposite. The further I looked into the images of both groups I began to note the similarities between them.
