Current Affairs

Current Affairs, a 7-foot-tall hanging sculpture, captures a moment in time when human rights and democracy are under attack. Stamped on accordioned paper that floats down the center of the work are the words, WOMEN’S RIGHTS, LGBTQ RIGHTS, RACIAL EQUALITY and DEMOCRACY – all of which are under assault. Shapes swirling around the center represent the countless alliances protecting the rights of those under an onslaught. Written words are woven into many of the swirling shapes calling for equality, understanding, acceptance, and respect.
