Below are a selection by Hope Ezcurra:

"ACADEMIC WORK"

The below is the product of a semester long research project I was assigned by a very thoughtful Art History professor, James Scarborough, during my studies at CSUDH. The class was asked to research an artist from anytime in the period of early art history that was covered by the course and imagine a conversation with them. I chose to research upper paleolithic Venus statues, and envisioned the conversation as a mock magazine interview with the imagined artisan of  the Venus of Hohle Fels, the earliest surviving example of these artifacts.
