The Kuumba team takes a step outside the realm of WashU’s student body and into the shared office of Linda Solovic and Traci Moore Clay, of which all four walls proudly display both professors’ work and inspiration. Linda teaches the art electives Basic Illustration along with Licensed Image and Traci conducts the Communication Design I and II elective courses. These two colleagues and friends discuss their design process, their past experiences with art and inspire us to continue an open dialogue between students and professors about the importance of creativity.
