It's the second straight year the artist has brought a memorable piece to ArtPrize. Last year, it was video/sculpture called "Object-Orientalis" at the Fed Galleries at KCAD.
This is the last weekend of Summer. Fall officially arrives on Saturday at 9:54 pm. ArtPrize 10 is underway. There is also a Bridal Show, Festivals, Fundraisers, Music and Comedy, a Job Fair, a Freedom Cruise, and a chance to Recycle that Old Computer.
It's a sampling of the full collection which began 25 years ago and has been featured around the world as a project called WE ARE ALL HOMELESS and in a documentary called "Signs of Humanity".
The film tells the story of Leslie King who was molested at 8 and forced into prostitution at 15. She spent over 20 years trapped and addicted before breaking free in 2000.
