Tending to my Tulips, Necklace
Born and raised in Rural Vermont, I experienced homelessness for the first time at age 14. I evaded displacement with the help of my community through my admittance to The School of the Art Institute of Chicago, where I acquired the skills necessary to create the emotionally provocative work you see today. Although my work is personally motivated it relates to the world at large, as I know my feelings nor experiences are unique to me but rather are a reflection of the time and place I arrived. By speaking on my own experience I hope viewers can broaden their understanding of topics that may be hard to reach, difficult to discuss, or overwhelming so that we may reach a better understanding of each other and the validity in our unique experiences and our inherent differences.
