This past October 2018 my participation at Artspace New Haven, City Wide Open Studios Alternative Space Weekend, at Yale’s West Campus in Orange Ct. gave me an opportunity to engage with the public about my new work.

I was able to engage with and listen to the concerns that the public has regarding this event. Many of these people encouraged me to continue my work and thanked me for doing what I was doing. A few challenged me, which was great, to be able engage, and defend my work. I learned a lot about myself and my process with these conversations. I also realized from this interaction how important it is to search for truth
