Despite the circumstances of having to attend the Women Who Rock event online, I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to see all of the amazing panelists share their art. Upon exiting the webinar, I began reflecting on how much more intimate the event actually felt online. I felt as if I was in any other online chat with a close group of friends whom I felt very comfortable around.
Given the current state of the world, it was very refreshing being in the space that acknowledged the injustices currently happening along with the ones of the past. Seeing the panelist perform their art of dance at the beginning of the webinar was incredible, and greatly inspired me to get comfortable expressing my art in the comfort of my own home, and broadcasting it into life.
I found all of the Ofrendas breathtaking, and gave me even more insight of my culture that I often try to become closer to. I find it very admirable how much thought, time and effort was put into the ofrenda while upholding sustainable values, and valuing individuality and self expression in the art.
