Gillespie Alvarado Yuille
Gillespie Alvarado Yuille is a new freshman at BLA. She recently joined the Jabberwock because she believes and wants to support the expression of our school. Multimedia art is one the best places to do that. Sharing your thoughts, feelings and beliefs is not only important to others but to yourself as well. She wants to help our community understand the perspective of all its students. She herself engages in many different forms of art. She is a dancer, an artist and pianist. Gillespie spends most of her time dancing. Dance is a type of art you don’t need words or pencils to do but only yourself. It is so intriguing and interesting to her because of its simplicity and bareness that contains so much effort. A simple line engages so many muscles and takes so much work. It is a truly beautiful way to express who you are. As part of the visual and multimedia arts team she hopes to share identity around our school and achieve this goal of creating connection in this community.
