The opening reception is April 3 from 6-8pm and is holding an Artist's Discussion on April 5 from 2-2:30pm. The exhibition of new work explores how women navigate the geographic, social, can physiological boundaries between the US and Mexico. Documenting her performances and installations using photography and the painted image, her work reveals how women's bodies become surfaces imprinted with political and social upheavals.

I learned to drop all previous assumptions I had about people because I had never met anyone like the other students at Oxbow. For the first time, my peers and their insightful thinking inspired me. For example, during the ‘Einstein’s Dreams’ presentations, I kept looking around the room thinking, I can’t believe all of these students are talking the way I think.

I want to thank you all for being so supportive and wonderful, thank you for running this incredible program. And half of my acceptance to RISD is because of Oxbow. (Especially thanks to Chris who wrote my letter of rec, to Jennifer who revised my essays, to the admissions team who helped me with my portfolio.

Oxbow forced me to create, and by creating, I established foundation for my thought.
