Description

"TRANSFER(S)" uses many burlap sacks that are layered and hung interestingly, creating a unique look. The natural brown color of the burlap stands out against the old, worn walls of the abandoned building, highlighting themes of moving and migration. This artwork changes the empty shopping space into a powerful message about people's experiences, encouraging viewers to think deeply about these critical issues.
