Not everything is a full story. Some of it is just a day on campus doing something unusual, and coming back with content nobody else could have made.

Arts · Campus

The Ephemeral Leaf Artist

He's usually a mystery, making intricate art from fallen leaves on campus before anyone wakes up. I met him, watched him work in the early hours of the morning, and turned it into one of my favourite pieces of content from my time at MQU.

🎓

Social Media · Instagram · TikTok
