what life gives existed for three days as a site specific installation at The First Pittsburgh Visionary Arts Festival. Over the course of 27 hours, what life gives was open to foot traffic. Over 700 people walked through the installation, transforming a sea of jagged eggshell halves into a bed of softness that no longer maintained it’s identity as eggshells.

what life gives visually expressed my feelings about the difficulty of life’s journey and of the beauty found along the way. There is something inside of me that keeps me going. Often I do not know what that something is, I am just thankful that it is.
