Nazareth seniors answer through art in 'Who Am I? Who I Am' Exhibit
The exhibition titled Who Am I? Who I Am features work of various media, including painting, printmaking, and digital art by Jude Landry from Allentown, Pennsylvania, Rochester native Christina Georgiadis, and Brenna Lancto from Fairport.
All three students expressed excitement to News 8 after seeing their projects shown to the community on opening night.
Georgiadis's work features a combination of elements from the world and figures to explore the perception of body image. She added a touch of her family history to her artwork.
'All of the flowers kind of tie in with Greek mythology, I come from Greek parents, so I wanted to bring in a little personal layer to my art,' Georgiadis told News 8.
Lancto's art is expressed through invented mythological beasts that examine the topic of self-discovery and strong emotions reflective of her own emotions when creating.

Lancto said, 'My pieces come to me in a time of high emotion, it doesn't matter if it's negative or positive or in between. I see them in my head, and then I try to bring them to life the best I can with my iPad.'
Landry uses his experience as a transgender man in his lithography to encourage his younger self 'that her dreams live on in him, and, regardless of what dad used to say about her, through him, she is capable of anything she wishes to accomplish.' In the time it took him to complete the piece, he was shocked at the progress he'd made.
'I've only been doing the work I have up on the wall for a year and a half,' Landry said, 'So, the fact that I have as much as I do, like I kind of shocked myself when I went to go hang it all, but I could not be more proud of myself seeing it all up.'
Those interested in viewing the artwork may visit the exhibit Friday and Saturday from 12 p.m. to 8 p.m. and Sunday through Thursday from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. until the exhibit's closing on May 9.

30 Affordable Products That Give Off Quiet Luxury Vibes
A pair of retro oval sunglasses similar to the Celine pair that are just a *tad* bit too expensive to justify buying (okay, they're actually way out of my budget). But don't worry, these look just like them and they'll still protect you from UVA and UVB rays while making you look like a celeb. Or a pair of rounded rectangle sunglasses that'll even make Donatella Versace do a double-take and wonder where you got them. The eye-catching gold detailing on the sides and the included lens wipe have reviewers saying they are going to buy these again in different colors. A chunky knit chenille throw blanket to add a bit of texture to your living space. It doesn't shed, is machine washable, AND is 100% handmade. If you need me, I'll just be imagining I'm royalty in my own living room with this blanket. A faux leather bag featuring magnetic closures to make it extra wide to fit all of the day's necessities and more. Reviewers rave about how this looks just like the Polène Cyme bag. It's big enough to fit a water bottle, an iPad, and books, and even comes with a small zipper pouch for your smaller items that always get lost at the bottom of your purse. A wall-mounted towel rack to make it feel like you're living in a day spa that has perfectly rolled towels at your service. You can store large towels and washcloths and easily access them near the shower entrance without doing a dripping wet dance to the linen closet because you forgot to put out a towel. A pair of sling-back mules radiating "I only shop at Chanel" vibes, but really, you got these off of Amazon. (Yay!) The heel is enough to elevate you *and* your shoe game, but reviewers say these are still comfortable enough to make it through their day. A carafe with a matching glass meant to replace all those wasteful plastic water bottles and give a more stylish look to your hydration station (aka your bedside table). For less than $30, this investment is definitely worth it. An RFID-blocking travel wallet big enough to hold your passport, IDs, credit cards, money, plane ticket, and even a sim card! This wallet not only protects your important items, it's also elegant enough that you might just use this as your everyday wallet or use it as a clutch for a fancy dinner. A knit short-sleeve shirt that makes it seem like business casual is the only dress code you know. The V-neck, ribbed detailing, and collar elevate what would be just a normal short-sleeve T-shirt, and reviewers say they love how the material is higher quality than expected. Or a sleeveless knit sweater vest, which looks like it was borrowed out of Sofia Richie's (aka this generation's queen of quiet luxury) closet. The striped vest will keep you cool and comfortable, and can be dressed up or down depending on your luxurious or relaxed plans for the week. An oversized square ice cube tray perfect for dressing up an afternoon cocktail or just your everyday glass of water. These ice cubes melt more slowly than standard-sized ice cubes and will make you feel like an at-home bartender. You can even get fancy with it by putting some lemon slices or a sprig of mint to add some extra pizzazz to your refreshing drink. A beautiful tennis bracelet, giving a sparkling touch of sophistication for less than $20. This 14-karat gold-plated bracelet looks way more expensive than you paid for and has a durable clasp so you can wear it all day, every day. A pair of metallic kitchen scissors so fancy that they look like they should be cutting a big ribbon for a grand opening of a store. These dishwasher-safe shears are perfect for cutting chicken, red meat, vegetables, and even have additional features like a bottle opener and serrated edge. A pair of Steve Madden H strap sandals, perfect for a summer trip to Europe, or if you just want to switch out the plain thong flip flops for a more sophisticated look. You'll be sure to shock everyone when you tell them they aren't Hermès (gasp!). A pair of statement teardrop earrings for a fashion-forward twist on the classic hoop. Contrary to how chunky they look, reviewers say they are so lightweight and a comfortable staple to their earring collection. Plus, they come with two different backing options (great if you always somehow lose them around the house like me). An electric gooseneck kettle that will make you sing 🎶 here is my handle, here is my spout 🎶 with pride because of how neat this is. It has a sleek design and even includes an automatic shut-off so you can relax while you're enjoying a nice cup o' tea. Or a Smeg-like, but not Smeg-priced, electric kettle featuring a thermometer to get the water to the exact temperature for your extra hot pour-over coffee or your soothing cup of tea. And, this too has the automatic shut-off. A skinny leather belt that is really more for style than function, but oh, does it pull together an outfit. The gold horsebit buckle makes it easy to take on and off, and the adjustable sliding strap in the back is great for switching from a high-waisted to a low-waisted look. A reed diffuser just like the ones you see at the fancy hotel bathrooms that make you say, "Ooh, even the bathrooms smell nice!" Each scent comes with a different set of preserved flowers that makes this as aesthetic as it is functional. A vintage-inspired watch if your Apple Watch just isn't doing it for you anymore. This easily adds an extra ~oomph~ and sophistication to any outfit. And if you still rely on a digital clock to know what time it is, this can just be an elegant accessory. Or a gold Apple-compatible wristband to give you the best of both worlds in terms of style and keeping the cool features of your Apple watch. Plus, it comes with a tool for adjusting the links to your wrist size. It might not be a Rolex, but I gotta say this is pretty snazzy. A Kitsch satin pillowcase for giving you a splendid sleep experience that's good for your hair and skin, and just so silky smooth that you'll want to enjoy this luxury — quietly, in bed, and asleep. A pair of modern wall sconces that will literally light up your life and make your living space très chic. If you don't want to deal with connecting electrical wires, some reviewers have used remote-controlled lightbulbs for convenience. A thermal round brush for those who love a blowout look but don't love spending money on weekly trips to the hair salon. You're able to choose from two heat settings and can easily detach the brush head and store it in the included bag for when you're on the go. A textured MacBook case that fulfills your coastal grandma aesthetic, but also protects your already expensive laptop while making it look more elegant than other plastic covers. A set of velvet ottomans — a bougie spot for your booty or morning brew. When you flip the lid over, it reveals a beautiful wood tabletop! The gold bottom detailing and ribbed texture make these a perfect addition to the art deco-inspired home. A six-piece luggage set equipped with TSA locks, 360-degree wheels, and anti-scratch hardshell material. Even if you're only traveling to a cousin's wedding in Indiana, the coordinated carry-ons, checked bag, toiletry bag, and duffel will make it look like you're ready for a European getaway. A handmade ribbed candlestick so pretty that you probably won't even want to light it. Whether you use it as decor or actually end up lighting it, this candle needs no extra candle holder and gives a soft touch of elegance to your humble abode. A set of amber glass soap dispensers that look like Aesop dispensers... without you spending $43 for hand soap (we're in different tax brackets if you're lucky enough to buy Aesop soap). They even come with waterproof labels! We love a good eco-friendly AND economic-friendly home item. A matching bikini set Meredith Blake would've loved to wear with a big, wide-brimmed hat while tanning by the pool. The white and black detailing gives great contrast, and you can get each piece for less than $35!!! I didn't choose the fancy life. The fancy life chose me.
