At Metropolitan State University of Denver, students, artists, professors, and curators debate whether art should have moral limits, particularly when it addresses violence, political division, or sensitive social issues. The discussion features perspectives from Jess Gerome, an art education student who argues discomfort should not dictate creative expression, and Xtna Doleres, a multidisciplinary artist who believes art carries an ethical responsibility to speak truth and represent communities respectfully.
