Check out this recording of my presentation at the Wallingford Library, July 2022. We also held a two hour sewing workshop where a group of amazing folks from the community came by to contribute to the project.
It was a fun event at the Wilson Branch of the Windsor Library (small but mighty!). Check out this time lapse video of the event.

Her work has been supported by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the National Geographic Society, the Fulbright Nehru program, and the Connecticut Office of the Arts.
