Ledesma John Dominic E. completed a BFA-3B coursework involving the creation of totems made from epoxy clay that were challenging to mold but became smooth through sandpapering and painting. According to his artist statement, he admires totems and other items of power not for what they promise users but for how they are made and the symbols they represent, and so he created these totems as a reminder of who he is and what he stands for.
