This is an exhibition of student final projects from CLST 029 Mythology of India, taught by Visiting Assistant Professor Varun Khanna. Swarthmore digital librarians trained students to ethically use existing digital images and also to produce AI-generated art for their illustrations. Students could illustrate their storybooks using original hand-drawn art, digital images, or AI-generated art. The content of their myths is a combination of retellings of existing myths and original mythological stories.
This exhibition highlights some of the notable and eclectic works that are part of the collection, a number of which were donated to the college by alumni.
