As I'd mentioned awhile back, my penny project was among the artworks included in the Art for Human Rights show at the Amnesty International Midwest Regional Conference this past weekend. I was unable to attend the conference itself due to prior engagements, but I did make it to the awards presentation and a panel discussion on Sunday.
It was nice meeting some of the conferencegoers when I was there and talking to them about my piece. I am honored to have been involved in the event and am glad that a lot of people seem interested in adapting and building on my project at their own schools and institutions. And many people picked up the pennies that I took to display and left some of their own wishes. You can check out the wishes that I "found" when I went to pick up my work on the penny project blog here. I will try to disperse them in downtown St. Louis on Friday when I hang my show.
