Miami 2117

My contribution to FLOW, the Claremont Colleges Junior Art Exhibition
March 2017

A Lost Home- inspiration for my six pieces.

I loved growing up in South Florida. Sure, we’ve got hurricanes and crazy people, but it is a great place to live.
Unfortunately, the places I knew will be gone within my lifetime due to rising ocean levels. I probably will not
be able to take my kids to my childhood home or show them the gorgeous thriving reefs off the coast. At our
current carbon emissions rate, it is already too late for my neighborhood. The environmental protection laws
we have so delicately instated over the past two decades are being torn through like tissue and things will
only get worse. We have to be aware of these issues in order to make a change. We’ve heard it all before but
small things really do add up, even if just to slow down disaster.

My contribution to 50 Days, the Claremont Colleges Fall Senior Art Exhibition
October 2017

The works shown in this exhibition were inspired by the healing process of the 50 days after Hurricane Irma hit my home in South Florida. Although there was a lot of damage and the tree I played in as a child was lost, my family was incredibly lucky overall. The amazing thing about hurricanes is the moments of beauty that can be found afterwards- not only in the raw beauty of the destruction but also through communities coming together to help and support each other.
