Polyurethane Rope & Recovered Shopping Cart
Location: SE Corner of Campbell Ave. & Walnut St.
We all carry emotional baggage. This manifests differently for each of us. Some of us carry shopping carts of pain and bitterness while some of us just sport a tote bag. How we choose to handle our baggage makes a difference. We have the choice to let it define us or to let it go, move forward and express joy as a form of active resistance. My emotional baggage carats are vessels for racial trauma. My baggage carts serve to separate myself from the daily experience of microaggressions and create a new possibility for myself, free from these constraints.
