Where and how do you see yourself, your communities, and/or New Yorkers in this museum?
I see my community as a place that thrives from culture and I can see the impact that culture has placed into this museum which reflects my home of New York City. Somthing as simple as what seems as an every day object can show a wonderful story and a message we can learn from I want to show a similar lesson through my work. If I were to show my work in a museum such as this one I would want to show the importance of autism.

Where and how do you see yourself, your communities, and/or New Yorkers in this museum?
I see them and myself being represented with diversity and inclusive art installations. They truly represent the history of New York City and its people. I see many races and other groups being expressed in a variety of ways in the museum and at think that is pretty cool. I also thought that the arm wrestle of chip and spike was pretty cool as it was very colorful and vibrant that have a semi realistic feel. There is a lot of symbolism with the zodiac signs and the main subject gives off the theme of unity and friendship which I think represents this night extremely well.

Where and how do you see yourself, your communities, and/or New Yorkers in this museum?
I love creating things and this museum puts attention in how there pieces are displayed. I want to show my truth, story, and knowledge through the museum similar to the paintings in this building which invoke a story through paint and depicting objects in a diffrent light. I want to make a change if I were to see myself in a museum such as this one.
